On the transitivity of the relation \(\beta\) in semihypergroups (Q1373426): Difference between revisions

A significant result in the hypergroup theory is the one given by D. Freni in 1991, that is that in a hypergroup \(\beta=\beta^*\). The aim of the paper under review is to characterize semihypergroups in which the relation \(\beta\) is transitive. The main theorem gives a necessary and sufficient condition such that \(\beta\) is transitive. As a corollary of this theorem the transitivity of \(\beta\) in hypergroups is proved again.
