Abstract

In this note, we consider the semigroup O(X)O(X) of all order endomorphisms of an infinite chain XX and the subset JJ of O(X)O(X) of all transformations α\alpha such that Im(α)=X|Im(\alpha)|=|X|. For an infinite countable chain XX, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on XX for O(X)=JO(X) = \langle J \rangle to hold. We also present a sufficient condition on XX for O(X)=JO(X) = \langle J \rangle to hold, for an arbitrary infinite chain XX.
