Abstract

Let T X denote the full transformation semigroup on a set X. For an equivalence E on X, let

$$T_{\exists}(X)=\{\alpha\in T_X:\forall x,y\in X,(x\alpha,y\alpha)\in E\Rightarrow(x,y)\in E\}.$$

Then T (X) is exactly the semigroup of mappings on the topological space X for which the collection of all E-classes is a basis. In this paper, we discuss regularity of elements and Green’s relations for T (X).
