One of the fundamental results of representation theory is the identification of the irreducible representations of a semisimple group by their dominant weights [3]. The purpose of this paper is to establish similar results for a class of reductive algebraic monoids.

Let k be an algebraically closed field. An algebraic monoid is an affine algebraic variety M defined over k, together with an associative morphism m:M × MM and a two-sided unit 1 ∈ M for m.
