Abstract

In the paper we study inverse semigroups B(G)\mathscr{B}(G), B+(G)\mathscr{B}^+(G), Bˉ(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G) and Bˉ+(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G) which are generated by partial monotone injective translations of a positive cone of a linearly ordered group GG. We describe Green's relations on the semigroups B(G)\mathscr{B}(G), B+(G)\mathscr{B}^+(G), Bˉ(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G) and Bˉ+(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G), their bands and show that they are simple, and moreover the semigroups B(G)\mathscr{B}(G) and B+(G)\mathscr{B}^+(G) are bisimple. We show that for a commutative linearly ordered group GG all non-trivial congruences on the semigroup B(G)\mathscr{B}(G) (and B+(G)\mathscr{B}^+(G)) are group congruences if and only if the group GG is archimedean. Also we describe the structure of group congruences on the semigroups B(G)\mathscr{B}(G), B+(G)\mathscr{B}^+(G), Bˉ(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G) and Bˉ+(G)\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G).
