An alternative look at the structure of graph inverse semigroups

For any graph inverse semigroup $G(E)$ we describe subsemigroups $D^0=D\cup\{0\}$ and $J^0=J\cup\{0\}$ of $G(E)$ where $D$ and $J$ are arbitrary $\mathcal{D}$-class and $\mathcal{J}$-class of $G(E)$, respectively. In particular, we prove that for each $\mathcal{D}$-class $D$ of a graph inverse semigroup over an acyclic graph the semigroup $D^0$ is isomorphic to a semigroup of matrix units. Also we show that for any elements $a,b$ of a graph inverse semigroup $G(E)$, $J_a\cdot J_b\cup J_b\cdot J_a\subset J_b^0$ if there exists a path $w$ such that $s(w)\in J_a$ and $r(w)\in J_b$.
