Extract

In [3] the authors introduced the notion of a completely 0-simple semigroup of quotients. This definition has since been extended to the class of all semigroups giving a definition of semigroups of quotients which may be regarded as an analogue of the classical ring of quotients. When Q is a semigroup of quotients of a semigroup S, we also say that S is an order in Q.
