The semigroup generated by the idempotents of a partition monoid

چکیده
We study the idempotent-generated subsemigroup of the partition monoid. In the finite case this subsemigroup consists of the identity and all the singular partitions. In the infinite case, the subsemigroup is described in terms of certain parameters that measure how far a partition is from being a permutation. As one of several corollaries, we deduce Howie’s description from 1966 of the semigroup generated by the idempotents of a full transformation semigroup.

Embedding in a nite 2-generator semigroup
In this paper we will be on erned with the possibility of embedding a nite semigroup S into a nite 2-generated semigroup T that shares properties with S. In parti ular we show that any nite orthodox semigroup S may be embedded in a nite orthodox semigroup T generated by two group elements and that any nite orthodox monoid S1 may be embedded as a semigroup into a nite 2-generated orthodox monoid...
متن کاملOn Kiselman Quotients of 0-hecke Monoids
Combining the definition of 0-Hecke monoids with that of Kiselman semigroups, we define what we call Kiselman quotients of 0-Hecke monoids associated with simply laced Dynkin diagrams. We classify these monoids up to isomorphism, determine their idempotents and show that they are J -trivial. For type A we show that Catalan numbers appear as the maximal cardinality of our monoids, in which case ...
متن کاملEvery Group Is a Maximal Subgroup of a Naturally Occurring Free Idempotent Generated Semigroup
The study of the free idempotent generated semigroup IG(E) over a biordered set E has recently received a deal of attention. Let G be a group, let n ∈ N with n ≥ 3 and let E be the biordered set of idempotents of the wreath product G ≀ Tn. We show, in a transparent way, that for e ∈ E lying in the minimal ideal of G ≀ Tn, the maximal subgroup of e in IG(E) is isomorphic to G. It is known that G...
متن کاملMitschs Order and Inclusion for Binary Relations and Partitions
Mitschs natural partial order on the semigroup of binary relations is here characterised by equations in the theory of relation algebras. The natural partial order has a complex relationship with the compatible partial order of inclusion, which is explored by means of a sublattice of the lattice of preorders on the semigroup. The corresponding sublattice for the partition monoid is also descri...
متن کاملOn Anti Fuzzy Ideals in Left Almost Semigroups
In this paper we have studied the concept of Anti fuzzy ideals in Left Almost Semigroups (LA-semigroup in short). The equivalent statement for an LA-semigroup to be a commutative semigroup is proved. The set of all anti fuzzy left ideals, which are idempotents, forms a commutative monoid. Moreover it has been shown that the union of any family of Anti fuzzy left ideals of an LA-semigroup is an ...
