LetT(X)be the full transformation semigroup on the setXand letT(X,Y)={α∈T(X):Xα⊆Y}. ThenT(X,Y)is a sub-semigroup ofT(X)determined by a nonempty subsetYofX. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition forT(X,Y)to be regular. In the case thatT(X,Y)is not regular, the largest regular sub-semigroup is obtained and this sub-semigroup is shown to determine the Green's relations onT(X,Y). Also, a class of maximal inverse sub-semigroups ofT(X,Y)is obtained.

Let T(X,Y) be the semigroup consisting of all total transformations from X into a fixed nonempty subset Y of X. For an equivalence relation ρ on X, let ρ^ be the restriction of ρ on Y, R a cross-section of Y/ρ^ and define T(X,Y,ρ,R) to be the set of all total transformations α from X into Y such that α preserves both ρ (if (a,b)∈ρ, then (aα,bα)∈ρ) and R (if r∈R, then rα∈R). T(X,Y,ρ,R) is then a subsemigroup of T(X,Y). In this paper, we give descriptions of Green’s relations on T(X,Y,ρ,R), and these results extend the results on T(X,Y) and T(X,ρ,R) when taking ρ to be the identity relation and Y=X, respectively.

Let TX be the full transformation semigroup on a set X. For a fixed nonempty subset Y of a set X, let TX,Y be the semigroup consisting of all full transformations from X into Y. In a paper published in 2008, Sanwong and Sommanee proved that the set FX,Y=α∈TX,Y:Xα=Yα is the largest regular subsemigroup of TX,Y. In this paper, we describe the maximal inverse subsemigroups of FX,Y and completely determine all the maximal regular subsemigroups of its ideals.

AbstractLet Y be a fixed nonempty subset of a set X and let T(X,Y ) denote the semigroup of all total transformations from X into Y. In 1975, Symons described the automorphisms of T(X,Y ). Three decades later, Nenthein, Youngkhong and Kemprasit determined its regular elements, and more recently Sanwong, Singha and Sullivan characterized all maximal and minimal congruences on T(X,Y ). In 2008, Sanwong and Sommanee determined the largest regular subsemigroup of T(X,Y ) when |Y |≠1 and Y ≠ X; and using this, they described the Green’s relations on T(X,Y ) . Here, we use their work to describe the ideal structure of T(X,Y ) . We also correct the proof of the corresponding result for a linear analogue of T(X,Y ) .

Combinatorics International audience A \em cyclic q-partition of a hypergraph (V,E) is a partition of the edge set E of the form \F,F^θ,F^θ², \ldots, F^θ^q-1\ for some permutation θ of the vertex set V. Let Vₙ = \ 1,2,\ldots,n\. For a positive integer k, Vₙ\choose k denotes the set of all k-subsets of Vₙ. For a nonempty subset K of V_n-1, we let \mathcalKₙ^(K) denote the hypergraph ≤ft(Vₙ, \bigcup_k∈ K Vₙ\choose k\right). In this paper, we find a necessary and sufficient condition on n, q and k for the existence of a cyclic q-partition of \mathcalKₙ^(V_k). In particular, we prove that if p is prime then there is a cyclic p^α-partition of \mathcalK^(Vₖ)ₙ if and only if p^α + β divides n, where β = \lfloor \logₚ k\rfloor. As an application of this result, we obtain two sufficient conditions on n₁,n₂,\ldots,n_t, k, α and a prime p for the existence of a cyclic p^α-partition of the complete t-partite k-uniform hypergraph \mathcal K^(k)_n₁,n₂,\ldots,n_t.

Let ${\cal T}_X$ be the full transformation semigroup on a set $X$.For $Y\subseteq X$, the semigroup $S(X,Y) =\{ f\in {\cal T}_X: f(Y)\subseteq Y\}$ is a subsemigroup of ${\cal T}_ X $. Fix an element $\theta\in S(X,Y)$ and for $f,g\in S(X,Y)$, define a new operation $*$ on $S(X,Y)$ by $f* g=f\theta g$ where $f\theta g$ denotes the produce of $g,\theta$ and $f$ in the original sense. Under this operation, the semigroup $S(X,Y)$ forms a semigroup which is called generalized semigroup of $S(X,Y)$ with the sandwich function $\theta$ and denoted by $S(X,Y,*_\theta)$. In this paper we first characterize the regular elements and then describe Green's relations for the semigroup $S(X,Y,*_\theta)$.

AbstractIn the paper, we introduce the notion of annihilators in BL-algebras and investigate some related properties of them. We get that the ideal lattice (I(L), ⊆) is pseudo-complemented, and for any ideal I, its pseudo-complement is the annihilator I⊥ of I. Also, we define the An (L) to be the set of all annihilators of L, then we have that (An(L); ⋂,∧An(L),⊥,{0}, L) is a Boolean algebra. In addition, we introduce the annihilators of a nonempty subset X of L with respect to an ideal I and study some properties of them. As an application, we show that if I and J are ideals in a BL-algebra L, then $J_I^ \bot $ is the relative pseudo-complement of J with respect to I in the ideal lattice (I(L), ⊆). Moreover, we get some properties of the homomorphism image of annihilators, and also give the necessary and sufficient condition of the homomorphism image and the homomorphism pre-image of an annihilator to be an annihilator. Finally, we introduce the notion of α-ideal and give a notation E(I ). We show that (E(I(L)), ∧E, ∨E, E(0), E(L) is a pseudo-complemented lattice, a complete Brouwerian lattice and an algebraic lattice, when L is a BL-chain or a finite product of BL-chains.

This paper introduces an auditor reliability framework that repositions the role of auditor independence in the accounting profession. The framework is motivated in part by widespread confusion about independence and the auditing profession's continuing problems with managing independence and inspiring public confidence. We use philosophical, theoretical, and professional arguments to argue that the public interest will be best served by reprioritizing professional and ethical objectives to establish reliability in fact and appearance as the cornerstone of the profession, rather than relationship-based independence in fact and appearance. This revised framework requires three foundation elements to control subjectivity in auditors' judgments and decisions: independence, integrity, and expertise. Each element is a necessary but not sufficient condition for maximizing objectivity. Objectivity, in turn, is a necessary and sufficient condition for achieving and maintaining reliability in fact and appearance.

The Kantian account of political authority holds that the state is a necessary and sufficient condition of our freedom. We cannot be free outside the state, Kantians argue, because any attempt to have the “acquired rights” necessary for our freedom implicates us in objectionable relations of dependence on private judgment. Only in the state can this problem be overcome. But it is not clear how mere institutions could make the necessary difference, and contemporary Kantians have not offered compelling explanations. A detailed analysis is presented of the problems Kantians identify with the state of nature and the objections they face in claiming that the state overcomes them. A response is sketched on behalf of Kantians. The key idea is that under state institutions, a person can make claims of acquired right without presupposing that she is by nature exceptional in her capacity to bind others.
