Subsemigroup structure of finite transformation semigroups.

Both necessary conditions and sufficient conditions in order that a subset of a finite transformation semigroup be a subsemigroup are developed in this paper. The existence of several subsemigroups of various orders is established. Also, some results concerning idem- potents and generators of idempo...
