Abstract

Let SS be an additively idempotent semiring and Mn(S)\mathbf{M}_n(S) be the semiring of all n×nn\times n matrices over SS. We characterize the conditions of when the semiring Mn(S)\mathbf{M}_n(S) is congruence-simple provided that the semiring SS is either commutative or finite. We also give a characterization of when the semiring Mn(S)\mathbf{M}_n(S) is subdirectly irreducible for SS beeing almost integral (i.e., xy+yx+x=xxy+yx+x=x for all x,ySx,y\in S). In particular, we provide this characterization for the semirings SS derived from the pseudo MV-algebras.
