Abstract:
A representable monoid is one with enough representative functions to separate points. It is shown that the monoid algebra of a representable monoid is a proper algebra. In particular, the group algebra of a residually-finite group is a proper algebra. It is also shown that the free product of two representable monoids is again representable.References
