Abstract
Let be the semigroup of all non-invertible transformations on an arbitrary set . It is known that is a regular semigroup. The principal right(left) ideals of a regular semigroup with partial left(right) translations as morphisms form a normal category (). Here we consider the category of partitions of a set and show that it admits a normal category structure and that is isomorphic to the category . We also consider the normal dual of the power-set category associated with and show that is isomorphic to the partition category - of the set .
