On the nilpotent ranks of certain semigroups of transformations

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that if 1 < r < re 2 then the rank and the nilpotent rank of (A) are both equal to re + 2 for all re.

On the semigroup nature of superconformal symmetry

TL;DR: In this paper, a semigroup of N = 1 superconformal transformations is introduced and analyzed, which can describe transitions from body to soul and form a proper ideal containing a set of nilpotent transformations.

On the Number of Nilpotents in the Partial Symmetric Semigroup

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained and discussed formulae for the total number of partial and nilpotent partial one-one transformations of a finite set, and showed that the number of transformations can be reduced to

On products of idempotent matrices

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that every transformation of a finite set which is not a permutation can be written as a product of idempotents, which is a result for matrices.

The semigroup of endomorphisms of a Boolean ring

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if R and T are isomorphic rings, then (R and T) and (T) are semigroups under composition, then they are not isomorphic.
