AbstractA characterization is provided here for any normal partition of the set of idempotents of a regular semigroup S. As a by-product of the method used, a new characterization of the greatest congruence on S corresponding to a given normal partition of its idempotents is obtained.Subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc. (MOS) 1970): 20 M 10.

AbstractLet I be a set and let (I) denote the set consisting of the 0 matrix over I × I and the matrix units over I × I. Then for x, z in (I) and x≠0≠z, xyz≠0 has precisely one solution y. This and several other statements are shown to be equivalent characterizations of (I) regarded as a semigroup with zero.1980 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc.): 20 M 10.

AbstractA natural equivalence θ on the lattice of congruences λ(S) of a semigroup S is studied. For any eventually regular semigroup S, it is shown that θ is a congruence, each θ-class is a complete sublattice of λ(S) and the maximum element in each θ-class is determined. 1980 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc.): 20 M 10.

AbstractThe compact semigroups in which each topologically simple subsemigroup is simple are characterized as those in which no subgroup sontains an element of infinite order. It is also shown that a locally compact toplogically simple subsemigroup of a compact semigroup must be simple. The note closes with an open problem.Subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc. (MOS) 1970): primary 22 A 15; secondary 20 M 10.

AbstractA characterization of group congruences on an eventually regular semigroup S is provided. It is shown that a group congruence is dually right modular in the lattice of congruences on S. Also for any group congruence ℸ and any congruence p on S, ℸ Vp and kernel ℸ Vp are described.

A completely regular semigroup is a semigroup that is a union of groups. The aim here is to provide an alternative characterization of the free completely regular semigroup Fcrx on a set X to that given by J. A. Gerhard in [3, 4].Although the structure theory for completely regular semigroups was initiated in 1941 [1] by A. H. Clifford it was not until 1968 that it was shown by D. B. McAlister [5] that Fcrx exists. More recently, in [7], M. Petrich demonstrated the existence of Fcrx by showing that completely regular semigroups form a variety of unary semigroups (that is, semigroups with the additional operation of inversion).

SynopsisA regular semigroup S is called V-regular if for any elements a, b ∈ S and any inverse (ab)′ of ab, there exists an inverse a′ of a and an inverse b′ of b such that (ab)′ = b′a′. A characterization of a V-regular semigroup is given in terms of its partial band of idempotents. The strongly V-regular semigroups form a subclass of the class of V-regular semigroups which may be characterized in terms of their biordered set of idempotents. It is shown that the class of strongly V-regular semigroups comprises the elementary rectangular bands of inverse semigroups (including the completely simple semigroups), a special class of orthodox semigroups (including the inverse semigroups), the strongly regular Baer semigroups (including the semigroups that are the multiplicative semigroup of a von Neumann regular ring), the full transformation semigroup on a set, and the semigroup of all partial transformations on a set.

AbstractIt is shown, using the author's construction for ‘labelled semilattices’, that every partially ordered set, in which every two elements have a common lower bound, is isomorphic to the partiallyordered set of 𝒥-classes of some completely semi-simple inverse semigroup.1980 Mathematics subject classification (Amer. Math. Soc): primary 20 M 10, secondary 04 A 05, 08 A 05.

AbstractIn this paper we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions on a regular semigroup in order that it should be an idempotent separating homomorphic image of a full subsemigroup of the direct product of a group and a fundamental or combinatorial regular semigroup. The main tool used is the concept of a prehomomrphism θ: S → T between regular semigroups. This is a mapping such that (ab) θ ≦ aθ bθ in the natural partial order on T.

AbstractAdapting the theory of the derived category to ordered groupoids, we prove that every ordered functor (and thus every inverse and regular semigroup homomorphism) factors as an enlargement followed by an ordered fibration. As an application, we obtain Lawson’s version of Ehresmann’s Maximum Enlargement Theorem, from which can be deduced the classical theory of idempotent-pure inverse semigroup homomorphisms and $E$-unitary inverse semigroups.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 20M18; 20L05; 20M17
