Given a semigroup $S$, a diagonal subsemigroup $\rho$ is defined to be a reflexive and compatible relation on $S$, i.e. a subsemigroup of the direct square $S\times S$ containing the diagonal $\{ (s,s)\colon s\in S\}$. When $S$ is finite,…
A completely simple semigroup S is a semigroup without zero which has no proper ideals and contains a primitive idempotent. It is known that S is a regular semigroup and any completely simple semigroup is isomorphic to the Rees matrix…
Given any digraph $D$ without loops or multiple arcs, there is a natural construction of a semigroup $\langle D\rangle$ of transformations. To every arc $(a,b)$ of $D$ is associated the idempotent transformation $(a\to b)$ mapping $a$ to…
Let $G=\Gamma(S)$ be a semigroup graph, i.e., a zero-divisor graph of a semigroup $S$ with zero element 0. For any adjacent vertices $x, y$ in $G$, denote $C(x,y)={z\in V(G) | N(z)={x,y}}$. Assume that in $G$ there exist two adjacent…
The cyclic graph $\Gamma(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ is the simple graph whose vertex set is $S$ and two vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if the subsemigroup generated by $x$ and $y$ is monogenic. In this paper, we classify the semigroup $S$ such…
A semigroup is completely simple if it has no proper ideals and contains a primitive idempotent. We say that a completely simple semigroup $S$ is a homogeneous completely simple semigroup if any isomorphism between finitely generated…
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…
In the paper we study inverse semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$ which are generated by partial monotone injective translations of a positive cone of a linearly ordered…
A congruence $\varepsilon$ on a semigroup $S$ is perfect if for any congruence classes $x\varepsilon$ and $y\varepsilon$ their product as subsets of $S$ coincides (as a set) with the congruence class $(xy)\varepsilon$. Perfect congruences…
We associate a graph ${\mathcal N}_{S}$ with a semigroup $S$ (called the upper non-nilpotent graph of $S$). The vertices of this graph are the elements of $S$ and two vertices are adjacent if they generate a semigroup that is not nilpotent…
In this paper we characterize the monoid congruences of commutative semigroups by the help of the notion of the separator of subsets of semigroups. We show that every monoid congruence of a commutative semigroup S can be constructed by the…
A DR-semigroup $S$ (also known as a reduced E-semiabundant or reduced E-Fountain semigroup) is here viewed as a semigroup equipped with two unary operations $D,R$ satisfying finitely many equational laws. Examples include DRC-semigroups…
We study algebraic and topological properties of topological semigroups containing a copy of the bicyclic semigroup C(p,q). We prove that each topological semigroup S with pseudocompact square contains no dense copy of C(p,q). On the other…
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…
Given a $\Gamma$-semigroup $S$, we construct a semigroup $\Sigma$ in such a way that one sided ideals and quasi-ideals of $S$ can be regarded as one sided ideals and quasi-ideals respectively of $\Sigma$. This correspondence and other…
Let $S$ be a semigroup, $\Lambda$ a non-empty set and $P$ a mapping of $\Lambda$ into $S$. The set $S\times \Lambda$ together with the operation $\circ _P$ defined by $(s, \lambda)\circ _P(t, \mu )=(sP(\lambda)t, \mu )$ form a semigroup…
We study group congruences on the semigroup $\boldsymbol{B}_{\omega}^{\mathscr{F}}$ and its homomorphic retracts in the case when an ${\omega}$-closed family $\mathscr{F}$ which consists of inductive non-empty subsets of $\omega$. It is…
Let $\mathbb{Z}$ be the additive (semi)group of integers. We prove that for a finite semigroup $S$ the direct product $\mathbb{Z}\times S$ contains only countably many subdirect products (up to isomorphism) if and only if $S$ is regular. As…
Diagonal groups are one of the classes of finite primitive permutation groups occurring in the conclusion of the O'Nan-Scott theorem. Several of the other classes have been described as the automorphism groups of geometric or combinatorial…
In the paper we study the semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ which is a generalization of the bicyclic semigroup. We describe main algebraic properties of the semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ and prove that every non-trivial…
