Abstract

In this paper we define the radical ϱ k (kZ +) of a relation ϱ on an arbitrary semigroup. Also, we define various types of k-regularity of semigroups and various types of k-Archimedness of semigroups. Using these notions we describe the structure of semigroups in which ρ k is a band (semilattice) congruence for some Green’s relation.
