Homomorphisms and semilattice decomposition of a band with an identity.












2












$begingroup$


My question is fairly simple. Suppose we have a right-zero semigroup with an attached identity and decompose it into a semilattice. How do we define the structural homomorphism from 1 into the right-zero semigroup? For instance, let $a,b$ be elements of the right zero semigroup suppose we map $1$ to $a$ then $b1=ba=a$ but $1$ is an identity.



Thanks.



edit: By clarity:



Let Y be the semilattice ${S_{alpha}: alpha in Y}$ of disjoint rectangular bands. For each pair $alpha, beta in Y$ $(alpha geq beta$) let $phi_{alpha, beta}:S_{alpha} longrightarrow S_{beta}$ be a homomorphism and suppose $phi_{alpha, alpha}$ is an automorphism of $S_{alpha}$ and $phi_{alpha, beta} phi_{beta, gamma} = phi_{alpha, gamma}$. Then the operation * on S is defined by $a_{alpha} * b_{beta} = (a_{alpha} phi_{alpha, alphabeta}) * (b_{beta} phi_{beta, alphabeta})$ for $a_{alpha} in S_{alpha}, b_{beta} in S_{beta}$.



Suppose $S_1$ is the rectangular band whose only element is 1. Then $1 geq alpha$ for all $alpha in Y$. If $S_{beta}$ is a, for example, 2 element right-zero semigroup, how do I define $phi_{1,beta}$?



Edit: The answer is you can't. I misunderstood the definition and these homomorphisms exist only in strong-semilattices. S, in this case, is not a strong semilattice.

    I think any map will work. We don't have to define these $phi_{a,b}$, but they are assumed to be given in order to draw the conclusion: there's a (certain kind of) semigroup structure arising on the disjoint union.

    But suppose $1 phi_{1,beta} = a$ then $b * 1 = b * 1 phi_{1,beta} = b*a=a$, but obviously $b*1=b$. What am I misunderstanding?

    $alpha$ is just part of the index set. Any band can be decomposed into a semilattice or rectangular bands which are in fact it's $mathscr{D}$-classes. If we attach an identity to a right zero semigroup we have two $mathscr{D}$- classes namely ${a,b}$ and ${1}$ which I have called $S_{beta}$ and $S_{1}$ respectively.
