Relative ranks of some partial transformation semigroups. (English) Zbl 1429.20047

Summary: Let \(P_n\), \(T_n\), \(I_n\), and \(S_n\) be the partial transformation semigroup, the (full) transformation semigroup, the symmetric inverse semigroup, and the symmetric group on \(X_n=\{1,\ldots,n \}\), respectively. For \(1\leq r\leq n-1\), let \(PK_{n,r}\) be the subsemigroup consisting \(\alpha\in P_n\) such that \(|operatorname{im}\alpha|\leq r\) and let \(SPK_{n,r}=PK_{n,r}\setminus T_n\). In this paper, we first examine the subsemigroup \(I_{n,r}=I_n\cup PK_{n,r}\) and we find the necessary and sufficient conditions for any nonempty subset of \(PK_{n,r}\) to be a (minimal) relative generating set of the subsemigroup \(I_{n,r}\) modulo \(I_n\). Then we examine the subsemigroups \(PI_{n,r}= SI_n\cup PK_{n,r}\) and \(SI_{n,r}=SI_n\cup SPK_{n,r}\) for \(1\leq r\leq n-1\) where \(SI_n=I_n\setminus S_n\) and compute their relative rank.
