The set of all subsets of any inverse semigroup forms an involution semiring under set-theoretical union and element-wise multiplication and inversion. We find structural conditions on a finite inverse semigroup guaranteeing that neither…
The purpose of this paper is to study the generalization of inverse semigroups (without order). An ordered semigroup S is called an inverse ordered semigroup if for every a 2 S, any two inverses of a are H-related. We prove that an ordered…
An inverse semigroup $S$ is a semigroup in which every element has a unique inverse in the sense of semigroup theory, that is, if $a \in S$ then there exists a unique $b\in S$ such that $a = aba$ and $b = bab$. We say that an inverse…
In this paper we discuss graph inverse semigroups which are constucted from a directed graphs and study several interesting properties of graph inverse semigroups such as the nature of its idempotents, the structure of semilattice of…
The partial automorphism monoid of an inverse semigroup is an inverse monoid consisting of all isomorphisms between its inverse subsemigroups. We prove that a tightly connected fundamental inverse semigroup $S$ with no isolated nontrivial…
Recently we have shown that the equivalence classes of metrics on the double of a metric space $X$ form an inverse semigroup. Here we define an inverse subsemigroup related to a family of isometric subspaces of $X$, which is more…
A regular ordered semigroup $S$ is called right inverse if every principal left ideal of $S$ is generated by an $\mathcal{R}$-unique ordered idempotent. Here we explore the theory of right inverse ordered semigroups. We show that a regular…
In this paper we provide an overview of the class of inverse semigroups $S$ such that every congruence on $S$ relates at least one idempotent to a non-idempotent; such inverse semigroups are called $E$-disjunctive. This overview includes…
Semifields are semirings in which every nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse. A rough classification uses the characteristic of the semifield, that is the isomorphism type of the semifield generated by the two neutral elements. For…
In a group $G$, elements $a$ and $b$ are conjugate if there exists $g\in G$ such that $g^{-1} ag=b$. This conjugacy relation, which plays an important role in group theory, can be extended in a natural way to inverse semigroups: for…
We introduce the inverse monoid of inner partial automorphisms of a semigroup -- a tool that associates to every semigroup an inverse semigroup. When the semigroup is a group, this inverse semigroup is isomorphic to the group of inner…
A subsemigroup $S$ of an inverse semigroup $Q$ is a left I-order in $Q$, if every element in $Q$ can be written as $a^{-1}b$ where $a, b \in S$ and $a^{-1}$ is the inverse of $a$ in the sense of inverse semigroup theory. We study a…
This is the first of a series of papers in which we initiate and develop the theory of reflection monoids, motivated by the theory of reflection groups. The main results identify a number of important inverse semigroups as reflection…
A semigroup $S$ is an equational domain if any finite union of algebraic sets over $S$ is algebraic. We prove that if an inverse semigroup $S$ is an equational domain in the extended language $\{\cdot,{}^{-1}\}\cup\{s|s\in S\}$ then $S$ is…
The geometry of inverse semigroups is a natural topic of study, motivated both from within semigroup theory and by applications to the theory of non-commutative $C^*$-algebras. We study the relationship between the geometry of an inverse…
Inverses semigroups and orthodox semigroups are either defined in terms of inverses, or in terms of the set of idempotents E(S). In this article, we study analogs of these semigroups defined in terms of inverses modulo Green's relation H,…
As an appropriate generalisation of the features of the classical (Schein) theory of representations of inverse semigroups in $\mathscr{I}_{X}$, a theory of representations of inverse semigroups by homomorphisms into complete atomistic…
We study generalized inverses on semigroups by means of Green's relations. We first define the notion of inverse along an element and study its properties. Then we show that the classical generalized inverses (group inverse, Drazin inverse…
We investigate various groupoids associated to an arbitrary inverse semigroup with zero. We show that the groupoid of filters with respect to the natural partial order is isomorphic to the groupoid of germs arising from the standard action…
A semiring generalises the notion of a ring, replacing the additive abelian group structure with that of a commutative monoid. In this paper, we study a notion positioned between a ring and a semiring -- a semiring whose additive monoid is…
