UDC 512.5 We determine the relative rank of the semigroup of all transformations on a finite chain with restricted range modulo the set of all orientation-preserving transformations in Moreover, we state the relative rank of the semigroup modulo the set of all order-preserving transformations in In both cases we characterize the minimal relative generating sets.

We give a thorough structural analysis of the principal one-sided ideals of arbitrary semigroups, and then apply this to full transformation semigroups and symmetric inverse monoids. One-sided ideals of these semigroups naturally occur as semigroups of transformations with restricted range or kernel.

The variant of a semigroup [Formula: see text] with respect to an element [Formula: see text], denoted [Formula: see text], is the semigroup with underlying set [Formula: see text] and operation ⋆ defined by [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study variants [Formula: see text] of the full transformation semigroup [Formula: see text] on a finite set [Formula: see text]. We explore the structure of [Formula: see text] as well as its subsemigroups [Formula: see text] (consisting of all regular elements) and [Formula: see text] (consisting of all products of idempotents), and the ideals of [Formula: see text]. Among other results, we calculate the rank and idempotent rank (if applicable) of each semigroup, and (where possible) the number of (idempotent) generating sets of the minimal possible size.

The paper is concerned with the so-called natural order on the semigroup [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the full transformation semigroup on a set X, E is a non-trivial equivalence on X and R is a cross-section of the partition X/E induced by E. We determine when two elements of TE(X,R) are related under this order, find elements of TE(X,R) which are compatible with ≤ on TE(X,R), and observe the maximal and minimal elements and the covering elements.

The index and period of an element a of a finite semigroup are the smallest values of m ≥ 1 and r ≥ 1 such that am+r = am. An element with index m and period 1 is called an m-potent element. For an element α of a finite full transformation semigroup with index m and period r, a unique factorisation α = σβ such that Shift(σ) ∩ Shift(β) = ∅ is obtained, where σ is a permutation of order r and β is an m-potent. Some applications of this factorisation are given.

Let X be a finite set and let (X) be the full transformation semigroup on X, i.e. the set of all mappings from X into X, the semigroup operation being composition of mappings. This paper aims to characterize those elements of (X) which have square roots. An easily verifiable necessary condition, that of being quasi-square, is found in Theorem 2, and in Theorems 4 and 5 we find necessary and sufficient conditions for certain special elements of (X). The property of being compatibly amenable is shown in Theorem 7 to be equivalent for all elements of (X) to the possession of a square root.
