Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0699.00022.] The semigroup \({\mathcal R}(K)\) of all hereditary radical classes of group representations over a field \(K\) is considered. The idempotents of \({\mathcal R}(K)\) are just the radical classes in the sense of Kurosh-Amitsur. It turns out that the subsemigroup of \({\mathcal R}(K)\) generated by its idempotents allows a simple description in terms of generators and defining relations; namely, all the defining relations are of the form \(XY=YX=Y\) taken for all idempotents \(X\), \(Y\) such that \(X\leq Y\). The result is analogous to the description of the idempotent-generated subsemigroup of the semigroup of all prevarieties of group representations given by \textit{Al. A. Matveev} [Latv. Mat. Ezheg. 33, 92- 98 (1989; Zbl 0706.20011)], but the proof is, of course, different.
