In the study of the structure of regular semigroups, it is customary to impose several conditions restricting the behaviour of ideals, idempotents or elements. In a few instances, one may represent them as subdirect products of some much more restricted types of regular semigroups, e.g., completely (0-) simple semigroups, bands, semilattices, etc. In particular, studying the structure of completely regular semigroups, one quickly distinguishes certain special cases of interest when these semigroups are represented as semilattices of completely simple semigroups. In fact, this semilattice of semigroups may be built in a particular way, idempotents may form a subsemigroup, may be a congruence, and so on.
