Abstract: The (ordinary) quiver of an algebra

A

is a graph that contains information about the algebra's representations. We give a description of the quiver of

m a t h b b C P T_{n}

, the algebra of the monoid of all partial functions on

n

elements. Our description uses an isomorphism between

m a t h b b C P T_{n}

and the algebra of the epimorphism category,

E_{n}

, whose objects are the subsets of

1, l d o t s, n

and morphism are all total epimorphisms. This is an extension of a well known isomorphism of the algebra of

I S_{n}

(the monoid of all partial injective maps on

n

elements) and the algebra of the groupoid of all bijections between subsets of an

n

-element set. The quiver of the category algebra is described using results of Margolis, Steinberg and Li on the quiver of EI-categories. We use the same technique to compute the quiver of other natural transformation monoids. We also show that the algebra

m a t h b b C P T_{n}

has three blocks for

n > 1

and we give a natural description of the descending Loewy series of

m a t h b b C P T_{n}

in the category form.
