REGULARITY AND GREEN'S RELATIONS OF GENERALIZED PARTIAL TRANSFORMATION SEMIGROUPS

Abstract

Let X be any set and P(X) be the partial transformation semigroup on X. It is well-known that P(X) is regular. To generalize this, let X and Y be any sets and P(X, Y) be the set of all partial transformations from X to Y. For θ ∈ P(Y, X), let (P(X, Y), θ) be a semigroup (P(X, Y), *) where α * β = αθβ for all α, β ∈ P(X, Y). In this paper, we characterize the semigroup (P(X, Y), θ) to be regular, regular elements of the semigroup (P(X, Y), θ), [Formula: see text]-classes, [Formula: see text]-classes, [Formula: see text]-classes and [Formula: see text]-classes of the semigroup (P(X, Y), θ).
