Commutativity theorems for groups and semigroups

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this note we prove a selection of commutativity theorems for various classes of semigroups. For instance, if in a separative or completely regular semigroup S we have xpyp=ypxp and xqyq=yqxq for all x,yinS where p and q are relatively prime, then S is commutative. In a separative or inverse semigroup S, if there exist three consecutive integers i such that (xy)i=xiyi for all x,yinS, then S is commutative. Finally, if S is a separative or inverse semigroup satisfying (xy)3=x3y3 for all x,yinS, and if the cubing map xmapstox3 is injective, then S is commutative.
