Under the usual relational product, Hall relations form a semigroup which is known to be a block-group, that is, a semigroup with at most one idempotent in each $\\mathrsfs{R}$-class and each $\\mathrsfs{L}$-class. Here we show that in a certain sense, the converse is true: every block-group divides a semigroup of Hall relations on a finite set.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-09-11T19:21:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20M20", "20M30" ], "keywords": [ "finite set", "usual relational product", "hall relations form", "binary relation", "block-group divides" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
