STRONGLY ORTHODOX CONGRUENCES ON AN -INVERSIVE SEMIGROUP

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper we investigate some subclasses of strongly regular congruences on an $E$-inversive semigroup $S$. We describe the minimum and the maximum strongly orthodox congruences on $S$ whose characteristic trace coincides with the characteristic trace of given congruences and, in each case, we present an alternative characterization for them. A description of all strongly orthodox congruences on $S$ with characteristic trace $\tau $ is given. Further, we investigate the kernel relation of strongly orthodox congruences on an $E$-inversive semigroup and give the least and the greatest element in the class of the same kernel with a given congruence.
