Extensions of regular orthogroups by groups
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 April 2009
Abstract
A common generalization of the author's embedding theorem concerning the E-unitary regular semigroups with regular band of idempotents, and Billhardt's and Ismaeel's embedding theorem on the inverse semigroups, the closure of whose set of idempotents is a Clifford semigroup, is presented. We prove that each orthodox semigroup with a regular band of idempotents, which is an extension of an orthogroup K by a group, can be embedded into a semidirect product of an orthogroup K′ by a group, where K′ belongs to the variety of orthogroups generated by K. The proof is based on a criterion of embeddability into a semidirect product of an orthodox semigroup by a group and uses bilocality of orthogroup bivarieties.
