The sympathetic sceptics guide to semigroup representations

Group Theory 2021-06-14 v3

Abstract

This is an elementary introduction to the representation theory of finite semigroups. We illustrate the Clifford-Munn correspondence between the representations of a semigroup and the representations of its maximal subgroups. The emphasis throughout is on naturally occurring examples.
