Rees matrix covers for a class of abundant semigroups
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2011
Synopsis
Recently considerable attention has been paid to the study of locally inverse regular semigroups. McAlister [14] obtained a description of such semigroups as locally isomorphic images of regular Rees matrix semigroups over an inverse semigroup. The class of abundant semigroups originally arose from ‘homological’ considerations in the theory of S-systems: they are the semigroup theoretic analogue of PP-rings. Cancellative monoids, full subsemigroups of regular semigroups as well as the multiplicative semigroups of PP rings are abundant. The aim of this paper is to show how the structure theory described above for regular semigroups may be generalised to a class of abundant semigroups.
