Rees matrix seminearring

As a continuation of the work done in (R. Mukherjee (Pal), P. Pal and S. K. Sardar, On additively completely regular seminearrings, Commun. Algebra 45(12) (2017) 5111–5122), in this paper, our objective is to characterize left (right) completely simple seminearrings in terms of Rees Construction by generalizing the concept of Rees matrix semigroup (J. M. Howie, Fundamentals of Semigroup Theory (Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1995); M. Petrich and N. R. Reilly, Completely Regular Semigroups (Wiley, New York, 1999)) and that of Rees matrix semiring (M. K. Sen, S. K. Maity and H. J. Weinert, Completely simple semirings, Bull. Calcutta Math. Soc. 97 (2005) 163–172). In Rees theorem, a completely simple semigroup is coordinatized in such a way that each element can be seen to be a triplet which gives this abstract structure a much more simpler look. In this paper, we have been able to construct a similar kind of coordinate structure of a restricted class of left (right) completely simple seminearrings taking impetus from (M. P. Grillet, Semirings with a completely simple additive semigroup, J. Austral. Math. Soc. 20(Ser. A) (1975) 257–267, Theorem [Formula: see text] and (M. K. Sen, S. K. Maity and H. J. Weinert, Completely simple semirings, Bull. Calcutta Math. Soc. 97 (2005) 163–172, Theorem [Formula: see text]).

On singleton kernel classes in the lattice of varieties of completely regular semigroups

In this paper, it is shown that, for every non-trivial variety [Formula: see text] of groups, the variety [Formula: see text] of all completely regular semigroups all of whose subgroups belong to [Formula: see text] is minimal in its kernel class in the lattice [Formula: see text] of all varieties of completely regular semigroups, and hence it constitutes, in fact, a singleton kernel class in the lattice [Formula: see text]. Even more generally, it is shown that, for every variety [Formula: see text] of completely simple semigroups which does not consist entirely of rectangular groups, the variety [Formula: see text] of all completely regular semigroups all of whose completely simple subsemigroups belong to [Formula: see text] is minimal in its kernel class in the lattice [Formula: see text], and hence it likewise constitutes a singleton kernel class in the mentioned lattice [Formula: see text].

Left and right regular elements of the semigroups of transformations preserving an equivalence relation and a cross-section

Let [Formula: see text] be the semigroup of all transformations on a set [Formula: see text]. For an arbitrary equivalence relation [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text] and a cross-section [Formula: see text] of the partition [Formula: see text] induced by [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] Then [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are subsemigroups of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we characterize left regular, right regular and completely regular elements of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We also investigate conditions for which of these semigroups to be left regular, right regular and completely regular semigroups.

A conjecture for varieties of completely regular semigroups

The class 𝒞ℛ of completely regular semigroups considered with the unary operation of inversion within maximal subgroups forms a variety. The B-relation on the lattice ℒ(𝒞ℛ) of subvarieties of 𝒞ℛ identifies two varieties if they contain the same bands. Its classes are intervals with the set Δ of upper ends of these intervals. Canonical varieties form part of Δ. Previously we determined the sublattice Ψ of ℒ(𝒞ℛ) generated by the variety 𝒞𝒮 of completely simple semigroups and six canonical varieties. The conjecture is that the sublattice of ℒ(𝒞ℛ) generated by 𝒞𝒮 and canonical varieties follows the pattern of the structure of Ψ.
