On left C-wrpp semigroups. (Q1434260)

The paper extends results obtained by \textit{J. Fountain} [Semigroup Forum 13, 229-237 (1977; Zbl 0353.20051)] and \textit{X.-D. Tang} [Commun. Algebra 25, No. 5, 1499-1504 (1997; Zbl 0879.20030)] on C-rpp semigroups. The authors introduce the class of left C-wrpp semigroups which includes the class of semilattices of left cancellative monoids. It is shown that the semi-spined product of a left regular band and a C-wrpp semigroup has a specific form (called `curler') which is a left C-wrpp semigroup and vice versa.
