Abstract

The concept of strong spined product of semigroups is introduced. We first show that a semigroup S is a rpp-semigroup with left central idempotents if and only if S is a strong semilattice of left cancellative right stripes. Then, we show that such kind of semigroups can be described by the strong spined product of a C-rpp-semigroup and a right normal band. In particular, we show that a semigroup is a rpp-semigroup with left central idempotents if and only if it is a right bin.

Keywords

right pp-semigroups, right zero bands, strong spined products
