A partial transformation alpha on an n-element chain X-n is called order-preserving if x <= y implies x alpha <= y alpha for all x, y in the domain of alpha and it is called extensive if x <= x alpha for all x in the domain of alpha. The set of all partial order-preserving extensive transformations on X-n forms a semiband POEn. We determine the maximal subsemigroups as well as the maximal subsemibands of POEn.
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.
We study maximal subsemigroups of the monoid T(X) of all full transformations on the set X = N of natural numbers containing a given subsemigroup W of T(X), where each element of a given set U is a generator of T(X) modulo W. This note continues the study of maximal subsemigroups of the monoid of all full transformations on an infinite set.
