R-Unipotent Congruences on Eventually Regular Semigroups

Abstract

A semigroup S is called an eventually regular semigroup if for every a ∈ S, there exists a positive integer n such that an is regular. In this paper, the R-unipotent, inverse semigroup and group congruences on an eventually regular semigroup S are described by means of certain congruence pairs (ξ, K), where ξ is a normal congruence on the subsemigroup 〈E(S)〉 generated by E(S), and K is a normal subsemigroup of S.
