Abstract

For a group G, let \({{\mathcal E}(G)}\) denotes the near-ring of functions generated by the semigroup, End(G), of endomorphisms of G. Furthermore let \({D({\mathcal E}(G))}\) denotes the set of distributive elements of \({{\mathcal E}(G)}\) . The class of all groups is partitioned into four subclasses corresponding to how \({D({\mathcal E}(G))}\) sits between End(G) and \({ {\mathcal E}(G)}\) . In this paper, we discuss the direct product of these subclasses of groups.
