REFLECTORS AND GLOBALIZATIONS OF PARTIAL ACTIONS OF GROUPS

  • MYKOLA KHRYPCHENKO (a1) and BORIS NOVIKOV (a2)
Abstract

Given a partial action $\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$ of a group on a set with an algebraic structure, we construct a reflector of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$ in the corresponding subcategory of global actions and study the question when this reflector is a globalization. In particular, if $\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$ is a partial action on an algebra from a variety $\mathsf{V}$ , then we show that the problem reduces to the embeddability of a certain generalized amalgam of $\mathsf{V}$ -algebras associated with $\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$ . As an application, we describe globalizable partial actions on semigroups, whose domains are ideals.
