Abstract

Let Xn={1,2,,n}X_n = \{1,2,\dots,n\} be a finite set (n2)(n\geq 2) and TnT_n the full transformation semigroup on XnX_n. For a positive integer ln1l\leq n-1, we define Tn(l)={αTn ⁣:x,yXn,xy=l    xαyα=l}T_n(l) = \{\alpha\in T_n \colon \forall x,y\in X_n,\, |x-y| = l \;\Rightarrow\; |x\alpha - y\alpha| = l\} and Tn(l)={αTn ⁣:x,yXn,xy=l    xαyα=l}.T^*_n(l) = \{\alpha\in T_n \colon \forall x,y\in X_n,\, |x-y| = l \;\Leftrightarrow\; |x\alpha - y\alpha| = l\}. Then Tn(l)T_n(l) and Tn(l)T^*_n(l) are subsemigroups of TnT_n. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for Tn(l)T_n(l) to be regular. Moreover, we prove that Tn(l)T^*_n(l) is a regular semigroup.
