On certain bisimple inverse semigroups

Semilattice of Bisimple Regular Semigroups

The main purpose of this paper is to show that a regular semigroup S is a semilattice of bisimple semigroups if and only if it is a band of bisimple semigroups and that this holds if and only if 3) is a congruence on S. It is also shown that a quasiregular semigroup 5 which is a rectangular band of bisimple semigroups is itself bisimple. In [3, Theorem 4.4] it was shown that a semigroup S is a ...

Factorisability in certain classes over inverse semigroups

In the structure theory of inverse semigroups, there are two approaches, basically from the 1970’s, to build up inverse semigroups from semilattices and groups via their semidirect products. These approaches are dual to each other in the sense that one produces any inverse semigroup from a semidirect product of a semilattice by a group by taking an idempotent separating homomorphic image of an ...

On a groupoid construction for actions of certain inverse semigroups

We consider a version of the notion of F -inverse semigroup (studied in the algebraic theory of inverse semigroups). We point out that an action of such an inverse semigroup on a locally compact space has associated a natural groupoid construction, very similar to the one of a transformation group. We discuss examples related to Toeplitz algebras on subsemigroups of discrete groups, to Cuntz-Kr...

Free Objects in Certain Varieties of Inverse Semigroups

In this paper it is shown how the graphical methods developed by Stephen for analyzing inverse semigroup presentations may be used to study varieties of inverse semigroups. In particular, these methods may be used to solve the word problem for the free objects in the variety of inverse semigroups generated by the five-element combinatorial Brandt semigroup and in the variety of inverse semigrou...
