چکیده

In this paper we give a description of all subsemigroups of the bicyclic monoid B. We show that there are essentially five different types of subsemigroups. One of them is the degenerate case, and the remaining four split in two groups of two, linked by the obvious anti-isomorphism of B. Each subsemigroup is characterized by a certain collection of parameters. Using our description, we determine the regular, simple and bisimple subsemigroups of B. Finally we describe algorithms for obtaining the parameters from the generating set. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 20M10

Semigroup identities in the monoid of two-by-two tropical matrices

We show that the monoid M2(T) of 2 × 2 tropical matrices is a regular semigroup satisfying the semigroup identity A2B4A2A2B2A2B4A2 =A2B4A2B2A2A2B4A2. Studying reduced identities for subsemigroups of M2(T), and introducing a faithful semigroup representation for the bicyclic monoid by 2 × 2 tropical matrices, we reprove Adjan’s identity for the bicyclic monoid in a much simpler way.

The normal subsemigroups of the monoid of injective maps

We consider the monoid Inj(M) of injective self-maps of a set M and want to determine its normal subsemigroups by numerical invariants. This was established by Mesyan in 2012 if M is countable. Here we obtain an explicit description of all normal subsemigroups of Inj(M) for any uncountable set M .

Inverse subsemigroups of the monogenic free inverse semigroup

It is shown that every finitely generated inverse subsemigroup (submonoid) of the monogenic free inverse semigroup (monoid) is finitely presented. As a consequence, the homomorphism and the isomorphism problems for the monogenic free inverse semigroup (monoid) are proved to be decidable.

We study the classes of languages defined by valence automata with rational target sets (or equivalently, regular valence grammars with rational target sets), where the valence monoid is drawn from the important class of polycyclic monoids. We show that for polycyclic monoids of rank 2 or more, such automata accept exactly the context-free languages. For the polycyclic monoid of rank 1 (that is...
