Abstract: The present paper is concerned with the various algebraic structures supported by the set of Tur'an densities. We prove that the set of Tur'an densities of finite families of r-graphs is a non-trivial commutative semigroup, and as a consequence we construct explicit irrational densities for any r >= 3. The proof relies on a technique recently developed by Pikhurko. We also show that the set of all Tur'an densities forms a graded ring, and from this we obtain a short proof of a theorem of Peng on jumps of hypergraphs. Finally, we prove that the set of Tur'an densities of families of r-graphs has positive Lebesgue measure if and only if it contains an open interval. This is a simple consequence of Steinhaus's theorem.
