Abstract

Very little is known about the structure of the intersection of two kk-generated monoids of words, even for k=3k=3. Here we investigate the case of kk-maximal monoids, that is, monoids whose basis of cardinality kk cannot be non-trivially decomposed into at most kk words. We characterize the intersection in the case of two 33-maximal monoids.
