Here, we determine all maximal congruences on the semigroup Zn under multiplication modulo n. And, when Y lohtain in X, we do the same for the semigroup T（X, Y） consisting of all elements of T（X） whose range is contained in Y. We also characterise the minimal congruences on T（X. Y）.展开更多

We have shown previously that there are four distinct types of skew pairs of idempotents. Here we investigate the ubiquity of such skew pairs in full transformation semigroups.展开更多
