T1  - A note on generators of the endomorphism semigroup of an infinite countable chain
JF  - Journal of Algebra and its Applications
N2  - In this note, we consider the semigroup O(X) of all order endomorphisms of an infinite chain X and the subset J of O(X) of all transformations alpha such that vertical bar Im(alpha)vertical bar = vertical bar X vertical bar. For an infinite countable chain X, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on X for O(X) = < J > to hold. We also present a sufficient condition on X for O(X) = < J > to hold, for an arbitrary infinite chain X.

T1  - The Rank of the Semigroup of All Order-Preserving Transformations on a Finite Fence
JF  - Bulletin of the Malaysian Mathematical Sciences Society volume
N2  - A zig-zag (or fence) order is a special partial order on a (finite) set. In this paper, we consider the semigroup TFn of all order-preserving transformations on an n-element zig-zag-ordered set. We determine the rank of TFn and provide a minimal generating set for TFn. Moreover, a formula for the number of idempotents in TFn is given.

T1  - The maximal subsemigroups of semigroups of transformations preserving or reversing the orientation on a finite chain
JF  - Publicationes mathematicae
N2  - The study of the semigroups OPn, of all orientation-preserving transformations on an n-element chain, and ORn, of all orientation-preserving or orientation-reversing transformations on an n-element chain, has began in [17] and [5]. In order to bring more insight into the subsemigroup structure of OPn and ORn, we characterize their maximal subsemigroups.
