Pseudovarieties of completely regular semigroups (Q2639970)

The paper explores the relationships between varieties and pseudovarieties as described by \textit{C. J. Ash} [J. Algebra 92, 104-115 (1985; Zbl 0548.08007)] to translate several main results about the lattice \(L_ v\) of varieties of completely regular semigroups into corresponding results about the lattice \(L_ p\) of pseudovarieties of finite semigroups which are completely regular. In particular, the following are obtained: (i) an analogue for \(L_ p\) of \textit{L. Polák}'s description of \(L_ v\) [Semigroup Forum 36, 253-284 (1987; Zbl 0638.20032)]; (ii) a proof that the lattice \(L_ p\) is arguesian.
