Left Abundant Semigroups

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study some special lpp-semigroups, namely, the left GC-lpp semigroups. After obtaining some properties and characterizations of such semigroups, we establish some structure theorems of this class of semigroups. In addition, we also consider some special cases. As an application, we describe the structure theorems of IC quasi-adequate semigroups whose idempotent band is a regular band.     

Regular F-Abundant Semigroups

ABSTRACT

The investigation of regular F-abundant semigroups is initiated. In fact, F-abundant semigroups are generalizations of regular cryptogroups in the class of abundant semigroups. After obtaining some properties of such semigroups, the construction theorem of the class of regular F-abundant semigroups is obtained. In addition, we also prove that a regular F-abundant semigroup is embeddable into a semidirect product of a regular band by a cancellative monoid. Our result is an analogue of that of Gomes and Gould on weakly ample semigroups, and also extends an earlier result of O'Carroll on F-inverse semigroups.     

ON THE STRUCTURE OF REGULAR CRYPTO SEMIGROUPS

Superabundant semigroups are generalizations of completely regular semigroups written the class of abundant semigroups. It has been shown by Fountain that an abundant semigroup is superabundant if and only if it is a semilattice of completely J ^*-simple semigroups. Reilly and Petrich called a semigroup S cryptic if the Green's relation H is a congruence on S. In this paper, we call a superabundant semigroup S a regular crypto semigroup if H ^* is a congruence on S such that S/H ^* is a regular band. It will be proved that a superabundant semigroup S is a regular crypto semigroup if and only if S is a refined semilattice of completely J ^*-simple semigroups. Thus, regular crypto semigroups are generalization of the cryptic semigroups as well as abundant semigroups.     

Super rpp semigroups

We study a class of special strongly rpp semigroups, namely, the class of super rpp semigroups. These super rpp semigroups are generalizations of both superabundant semigroups and Clifford semigroups within the class of rpp semigroups. In particular, we prove that a super rpp semigroup is a semilattice of D ^(l)-simple strongly rpp semigroups. Our result not only generalizes a well-known theorem of Clifford in the class of completely regular semigroups but also strengthens some structure theorems obtained by Ren-Shum for superabundant semigroups which are orthodox. Some special super rpp semigroups are considered and discussed.     

Rees matrix covers for a class of locally U-commutative semigroups

Given the importance of Morita theory of semigroups, we continue the study on the local structure of semigroups. Here we consider a class of nonregular semigroups, called locally U-commutative semigroups having U-local units, containing the classes of locally inverse semigroups, locally adequate semigroups, locally Ehresmann semigroups, and semigroups with local units having locally commuting idempotents. Our aim is to give a Rees matrix covering theorem for such semigroups with a partial McAlister sandwich bundle, and hence to put all the existing results into one context.     

PERFECT rpp SEMIGROUPS

The aim of this paper is to study a class of rpp semigroups, namely the perfect rpp semigroups. We obtain some characterization theorems for such semigroups. In particular, the spined product structure of perfect rpp semigroups is established. As an application of spined product structure, we prove that a perfect rpp semigroup is a strong semilattice of left cancellative planks. By a left cancellative plank, we mean a product of a left cancellative monoid and a rectangular band. Thus, the work of J.B. Fountain on C-rpp semigroups is further developed.

     

OnP-Q ordered semigroups

In this paper,P-ordered andQ-ordered semigroups are studied. Some characterizations and properties of such semigroups are obtalned. Also the relationship between maximal (minimum) regular ordered semigroups and unitary regular semigroups is investigated.Research is partiallysupported by CUHK grant No. 220.600.080.     

E-minimal semigroups

TheE-minimal semigroups are completely characterized. It turns out that there are four classes ofE-minimal semigroups:p-groups, left (right) zero semigroups, nilpotent semigroups, and the two element semilattice.     

Some relations on completely regular semigroups

A semigroup S is called a Clifford semigroup if it is completely regular and inverse. In this paper, some relations related to the least Clifford semigroup congruences on completely regular semigroups are characterized. We give the relation between Y and ξ on completely regular semigroups and get that Y ^* is contained in the least Clifford congruence on completely regular semigroups generally. Further, we consider the relation Y ^*, Y, ν and ε on completely simple semigroups and completely regular semigroups.

On a Class of Subdirect Products of Left and Right Clifford Semigroups

Abstract

Regular semigroups S with the property eS ? Se or Se ? eS for all idempotents e ∈ S include all left and right Clifford semigroups. Characterizations of such semigroups are given and their structure investigated, in particular in terms of spined products of left and right Clifford semigroups with respect to Clifford semigroups.     

On Classes of E-Inversive Semigroups and Semigroups Whose Idempotents Form a Subsemigroup

Abstract

A semigroup S is called E-inversive if for every a ∈ S there is an x ∈ S such that ax is idempotent. The purpose of this paper is the investigation of E-inversive semigroups and semigroups whose idempotents form a subsemigroup. Basic properties are analysed and, in particular, semigroups whose idempotents form a semilattice or a rectangular band are considered. To provide examples and characterizations, the construction methods of generalized Rees matrix semigroups and semidirect products are employed.     

Normally Ordered Inverse Semigroups

NO of all normally ordered inverse semigroups. We show that the pseudovariety of inverse semigroups PCS generated by all semigroups of injective and order partial transformations on a finite chain consists of all aperiodic elements of NO . Also, we prove that NO is the join pseudovariety of inverse semigroups. PCS V G , where G is the pseudovariety of all finite groups.     

The structure ofP-regular semigroups

This paper gives some equivalent definitions of stronglyP-regular semigroups and characterizes the structure ofP-regular semigroups as the spined product of fundamentalP-regular semigroups and regular *-semigroups. This work is supported by the National Nature Science Foundation of China.     

Idempotent bounded C-semigroups

A semigroup with zero isidempotent bounded (IB) if it is the 0-direct union of idempotent generated principal left ideals and the 0-direct union of idempotent generated principal right ideals. Notable examples are completely 0-simple semigroups and the wider class of primitive abundant semigroups. Significant to the structure of these semigroups is that they are all categorical at zero. In this paper we describe IB semigroups that are categorical at zero in terms ofdouble blocked Rees matrix semigroups. This generalises Fountain's characterisation of primitive abundant semigroups via blocked Rees matrix semigroups [1], which in turn yields the Rees theorem for completely 0-simple semigroups.     

Idempotent probabilities on semigroups

Summary In this paper, idempotent probability measures have been considered on semigroups which are locally compact or metric and satisfy: (*) A ^–1 B and Ax ^–1 are compact whenever A and B are so, for every x in the semigroup. Such semigroups are more general than compact semigroups which do admit of such measures. On such semigroups we can construct such measures by the usual process if there is a compact sub-semigroup. It is shown in this paper that if such a measure exists in such semigroups, then it must be such an extension measure. Some related results concerning the conditions (*) are also discussed here.     

Distinct degree factorizations in additive arithmetical semigroups

The probability that an element of degreen has a given factorization pattern is computed within the context of a certain class of additive arithmetical semigroups. Concrete cases of these semigroups include the semigroup, of monic polynomials in one indeterminate over a finite fieldF _q , the multiplicative semigroups of ideals in principal orders within algebraic function fields overF _q and semigroups of integral divisors in algebraic function fields overF _q .     

Absolute flatness of regular semigroups with a finite height function

In this paper we give a sufficient condition for regular semigroups with a finite height function to be left absolutely flat. As a consequence, we can show that the semigroup Λ(S) of all right translations of a primitive regular semigroupS with only finitely manyR-classes, with composition being from left to right, is absolutely flat and give a generalization of a Bulman-Fleming and McDowell result concerning absolutely flat semigroups from primitive regular semigroups to regular semigroups with a finite height function. These results give examples of semigroups which are amalgamation bases in the class of semigroups. The author thanks the referee for finding errors in the original version of this paper.
