Biordered Sets of Regular Rings

James Alexander, E. Krishnan

The set of idempotents of a regular semigroup is given an abstract characterization as a regular biordered set in [2], and in [4] it is shown how a biordered set can be associated…

Non-noetherian groups and primitivity of their group algebras

James Alexander, Tsunekazu Nishinaka

We prove that the group algebra of a group over a field is primitive, provided that has a free subgroup with the same cardinality as , and that satisfies th…

A graph theoretic encoding of Lucas sequences

James Alexander, Paul Hearding

Some well-known results of Prodinger and Tichy are that the number of independent sets in the -vertex path graph is , and that the number of independent sets in the

A new method for enumerating independent sets of a fixed size in general graphs

James Alexander, Tim Mink

We develop a new method for enumerating independent sets of a fixed size in general graphs, and we use this method to show that a conjecture of Engbers and Galvin holds for all but…

Missing transverse energy significance at CMS

Nathan Mirman, Yimin Wang, James Alexander

Missing transverse energy significance may be used to help distinguish real missing transverse energy due to undetected particles from spurious missing transverse energy due to res…

Designs from Paley graphs and Peisert graphs

James Alexander

Fix positive integers and so that is prime, , and (mod ). Fix a graph as follows: If is odd or (mod ), let be th…
