    • Dots and lines : geometric semigroup theory and finite presentability 

      Awang, Jennifer S. (University of St Andrews, 2015-06-26) - Thesis
      Geometric semigroup theory means different things to different people, but it is agreed that it involves associating a geometric structure to a semigroup and deducing properties of the semigroup based on that structure. ...

    • Cayley automaton semigroups 

      McLeman, Alexander Lewis Andrew (University of St Andrews, 2015-06-26) - Thesis
      Let S be a semigroup, C(S) the automaton constructed from the right Cayley graph of S with respect to all of S as the generating set and ∑(C(S)) the automaton semigroup constructed from C(S). Such semigroups are ...

    • Dimension theory and fractal constructions based on self-affine carpets 

      Fraser, Jonathan M. (University of St Andrews, 2013-11-29) - Thesis
      The aim of this thesis is to develop the dimension theory of self-affine carpets in several directions. Self-affine carpets are an important class of planar self-affine sets which have received a great deal of attention ...

    • Finiteness conditions for unions of semigroups 

      Abu-Ghazalh, Nabilah Hani (University of St Andrews, 2013-06-28) - Thesis
      In this thesis we prove the following: The semigroup which is a disjoint union of two or three copies of a group is a Clifford semigroup, Rees matrix semigroup or a combination between a Rees matrix semigroup and a ...

    • Adventures in applying iteration lemmas 

      Pfeiffer, Markus Johannes (University of St Andrews, 2013-06-28) - Thesis
      The word problem of a finitely generated group is commonly defined to be a formal language over a finite generating set. The class of finite groups has been characterised as the class of finitely generated groups that ...
