Abstract

A recent paper studied an inverse submonoid MnM_n of the rook monoid, by representing the nonzero elements of MnM_n via certain triplets belonging to Z3\mathbb{Z}^3. In this short note, we allow the triplets to belong to R3\mathbb{R}^3. We thus study a new inverse monoid Mn\overline{M}_n, which is a supermonoid of MnM_n. We point out similarities and find essential differences. We show that Mn\overline{M}_n is a noncommutative, periodic, combinatorial, fundamental, completely semisimple, and strongly EE^*-unitary inverse monoid.
