Ternary structures and partial semigroups

From MaRDI portal





Let \(t\) be a ternary relation on a set \(G\neq \emptyset\). The pair \(G= (G,t)\) is a transitive ternary structure if \((x,y,z)\in t\) and \((z,y,u)\in t\) imply \((x,y,u)\in t\). It is shown that to every transitive ternary structure there can be assigned a partial semigroup of a certain type and vice versa. Special cases are treated. The paper contains two examples and one open problem.
