Techniques of semigroup theory
TL;DR: In this article, free inverse semigroups and the theorems of McAlister Biordered sets Zigzags and their applications are discussed. But they do not cover the application of ZigZags in word problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
On relative ranks of full transformation semigroups
TL;DR: For a semigroup S and a set B, the relative rank of S modulo A is the minimal cardinality of a setB such that S can be generated.

Combinatorial results for semigroups of order-preserving mappings
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated combinatorial properties of the semigroup O of all order-preserving mappings on Xn, and of its subsemigroup C which consists of all decreasing mappings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Countable versus uncountable ranks in infinite semigroups of transformations and relations
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that it is not possible to find a subset of a semigroup S = TX which is of countable relative rank greater than 2 in the case that A is either the full symmetric group or the set of all idempotents of S.
