The lattice of varieties of *-regular band monoids (Q1206795)

A \(*\)-regular band is a band equipped with an involution \(x\to x^*\) that satisfies \(xx^*x = x\). In this short note, the author finds all varieties of *-regular band monoids, in a similar fashion to her description [ibid. 33, 187-198 (1986; Zbl 0591.20060)] of all varieties of band monoids. The lattice is obtained from the natural numbers (under the usual order) by adjoining an identity at the top and a four-element diamond at the bottom.
