Semigroup presentations have been studied over a long period, usually as a means of providing examples of semigroups. In 1967 B. H. Neumann introduced an enumeration method for finitely presented semigroups analogous to the Todd–Coxeter coset enumeration process for groups. A proof of Neumann's enumeration method was given by Jura in 1978.In Section 3 of this paper we describe a machine implementation of a semigroup enumeration algorithm based on that of Neumann. In Section 2 we examine certain semigroup presentations, motivated by the fact that the corresponding group presentation has yielded interesting groups. The theorems, although proved algebraically, were suggested by the semigroup enumeration program.

SynopsisWe use programmes for the Todd-Coxeter coset enumeration algorithm and the modified Todd-Coxeter coset enumeration algorithm to investigate a class of generalised Fibonacci groups. In particular we use these techniques to discover a finite non-metacyclic Fibonacci group and to study its structure.

In 1956 R. H. Fox had occasion, while investigating fundamental groups of topological surfaces, to believe that the group <a, b | ab2=b3a, ba2=a2b> was trivial. Using the Todd-Coxeter coset enumeration algorithm a proof was obtained, see [3], and this algorithmic proof was used to produce an algebraic proof, see [2]. In [1] Benson and Mendelsohn, using a similar method to that of [2] showed that <a, b | abn=bn+1a, ban=an+1b> is trivial. In this note we give a direct proof for the more general problem of describing the structure of the group <a, b | abn=bℓa, ban=aℓb>.

In (8) Todd and Coxeter described an algorithm for enumerating the cosets of a finitely generated subgroup of finite index in a finitely presented group. Several authors ((1), (2), (5), (6), (7)) have discussed a modification of the algorithm to give also a presentation of the subgroup in terms of the given generators.

In cases where certain simplifications are allowed, the location optimisation of given and indivisible different economic units may be modelled as a bi-value weighted distribution problem. The paper presents a heuristic algorithm for this network-flow-type problem and also a partial enumeration algorithm for deriving the exact solution. But it is also pointed out that an initial sub-optimal solution can quickly be improved with a derivation on a direct line only, if the exact solution is not absolutely essential. A numerical example is used to illustrate the method of derivation on a direct line starting with an upper bound given by a sub-optimal solution.
