Abstract: The set of all cancellable elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties has recently been shown to be countably infinite. But the description of all cancellable elements of the lattice $mathbbMON$ of monoid varieties remains unknown. This problem is addressed in the present article. The first example of a monoid variety with modular but non-distributive subvariety lattice is first exhibited. Then a necessary condition of the modularity of an element in $mathbbMON$ is established. These results play a crucial role in the complete description of all cancellable elements of the lattice $mathbbMON$. It turns out that there are precisely five such elements.

Review text

A monoid variety is a cancellable element of the lattice of monoid varieties if and only if it coincides with one of the varieties \(T\), \(SL\), \(C_2\), \(D\) or \(MON\). \par Here, \(T\), \(SL\), and \(MON\) denote the variety of trivial monoids, the variety of semilattice monoids, and the variety of all monoids, respectively. Moreover \(C_2 = \mathrm{var}\{x^2 \approx x^3, xy \approx yx\}\) and \(D = \mathrm{var}\{x^2 \approx x^3, x^2 y \approx xyx \approx yx^2\}\).
