A note on Garside monoids and $${\mathscr {M}}$$-braces

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We define an algebraic structure similar to that of a semiring, but without some of the requirements. As it is somehow also similar to the structure of left brace, we call it an M-brace. We present a connection between Garside monoids and more generally lcm-monoids with this algebraic structure. An lcm-monoid M is a left-cancellative monoid such that 1 is the unique invertible element in M, and every pair of elements in M admit an lcm with respect to left-divisibility. The class of lcm-monoids contains the Gaussian, quasi-Garside and Garside monoids.
