Normal form in Hecke-Kiselman monoids associated with simple oriented graphs

Combinatorics 2022-05-25 v1

Abstract

We generalize Kudryavtseva and Mazorchuk's concept of canonical form of elements in Kiselman's semigroups to the setting of a Hecke-Kiselman monoid HKΓ\mathbf{HK}_\Gamma associated with a simple oriented graph Γ\Gamma. We use confluence properties to associate with each element in HKΓ\mathbf{HK}_\Gamma a normal form; normal forms are not unique, and we show that they can be obtained from each other by a sequence of elementary commutations. We finally describe a general procedure to recover a (unique) lexicographically minimal normal form.
