Left-regular bands (LRBs)

Definition (LRB)

A left-regular band is a semigroup B satisfying the identities:

• x2 = x• xyx = xy

Left-regular bands (LRBs)

Definition (LRB)

A left-regular band is a semigroup B satisfying the identities:

• x2 = x (B is a “band”)• xyx = xy (“left-regularity”)

Left-regular bands (LRBs)

Definition (LRB)

A left-regular band is a semigroup B satisfying the identities:

• x2 = x (B is a “band”)• xyx = xy (“left-regularity”)

Remarks

• Informally: identities say ignore “repetitions”.

• We consider only finite monoids here.

Representation Theory of LRBs

• Simple KB-modules and its Jacobson Radical

Let Λ(B) denote the lattice of principal left ideals of B,ordered by inclusion:

Λ(B) = {Bb : b ∈ B} Ba ∩Bb = B(ab)

Monoid surjection:σ : B → Λ(B)

b �→ Bb

ker(σ) = rad(KB)

Monoid surjection:σ : B → Λ(B)

ker(σ) = rad(KB)

where σ : KB → K(Λ(B)) is the extended morphism.K(Λ(B)) is semisimple and so simple KB-modules SX areindexed by X ∈ Λ(B).

Semisimple Quotient and Simple Modules

KB/ rad(KB) ∼= KB/ ker(σ) ∼= KΛ(B) ∼= KΛ(B)

For each X ∈ Λ(B), the corresponding simple module is 1dimensional and is given by the following action.

ρX(a) =

{1, if σ(a) ≥ X,

0, otherwise

Let SX denote the corresponding simple module.
