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…

Let T(X) be the semigroup of full transformations on a finite set X with n elements. We prove that every subsemilattice of T(X) has at most 2^{n-1} elements and that there are precisely n subsemilattices of size exactly 2^{n-1}, each…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

In this paper, we explain the importance of finite decomposition semigroups and present two theorems related to their structure.

We introduce the notion of semigroup with a tight ideal series and investigate their closures in semitopological semigroups, particularly inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. As a corollary we show that the symmetric inverse…

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…

A subset $A$ of a semigroup $S$ is called a $chain$ ($antichain$) if $xy\in\{x,y\}$ ($xy\notin\{x,y\}$) for any (distinct) elements $x,y\in S$. A semigroup $S$ is called ($anti$)$chain$-$finite$ if $S$ contains no infinite (anti)chains. We…

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 note we study the finite groups whose subgroup lattices are dismantlable.

We characterize those semilattices that give rise to Boolean spaces on their associated spaces of ultrafilters. The class of 0-disjunctive semilattices, important in the theory of congruence-free inverse semigroups, plays a distinguished…

Let $\mathbb{N}$ be a set of the natural numbers. Symmetric inverse semigroup $R_\infty$ is the semigroup of all infinite 0-1 matrices $[g_{ij}]$ with at most one 1 in each row and each column such that $g_{ii}=1$ on the complement of a…

The monogenic free inverse semigroup $FI_1$ is not finitely presented as a semigroup due to the classic result by Schein (1975). We extend this result and prove that a finitely generated subsemigroup of $FI_1$ is finitely presented if and…

For a semigroup $S$, the covering number of $S$ with respect to semigroups, $\sigma_s(S)$, is the minimum number of proper subsemigroups of $S$ whose union is $S$. This article investigates covering numbers of semigroups and analogously…

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…

We prove that for any distributive join-semilattice S, there are a meet-semilattice P with zero and a map f:PxP-->S such that f(x,z)<=f(x,y)vf(y,z) and x<=y implies that f(x,y)=0, for all x,y,z in P, together with the following conditions:…

We study the closures of subgroups, semilattices and different kinds of semigroup extensions in semitopological inverse semigroups with continuous inversion. In particularly we show that a topological group $G$ is $H$-closed in the class of…

Given a semigroup S with zero, which is left-cancellative in the sense that st=sr \neq 0 implies that t=r, we construct an inverse semigroup called the inverse hull of S, denoted H(S). When S admits least common multiples, in a precise…

Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $L(G)$ the subgroup lattice of $G$ and by ${\rm Isolated}(G)$ the set of isolated subgroups of $G$. In this note, we describe finite groups $G$ such that $|{\rm Isolated}(G)|=|L(G)|-k$, where…

The problem of embedding an ample semigroup in an inverse semigroup as a (2, 1, 1)-type subalgebra is known to be undecidable. In this article, we investigate the problem for certain classes of ample semigroups. We also give examples of…

Let $S$ be a semigroup and $T$ be a subsemigroup of finite index in $S$ (that is, the set $S\setminus T$ is finite). The subsemigroup $T$ is also called a large subsemigroup of $S$. It is well known that if $T$ has a finite complete…
