Abstract
Let be a right group. Then there exist two congruences and on such that is the product of its quotient semigroups and , where is a group and is a right zero semigroup. If is the set of all idempotents of and we fix an element , then the pointed right group is the coproduct of its pointed subsemigroups and in the category of pointed right groups. In general, there is a pretorsion theory in the category of right groups in which the torsion objects are right zero semigroups and the torsion-free objects are groups.
