LetM={a,b,c,…}andΓ={α,β,γ,…}be two non-empty sets.Mis called aΓ-semigroup ifaαb∈M, forα∈Γandb∈Mand(aαb)βc=aα(bβc), for alla,b,c∈Mand for allα,β∈Γ. A semigroup can be considered as aΓ-semigroup. In this paper we introduce orthodoxΓ-semigroups and extend different results of orthodox semigroups to orthodoxΓ-semigroups.
In his last novel The World of Nagaraj (1990), R.K.Narayan re-presents the quintessential South Indian village of Malgudi, which he had created and re-created over and over again in one novel after another since its genesis in 1935 in Swami and Friends. In The World of Nagaraj the infiltration of postmodern self-reflexive metafictional elements that commingle with the portrayal of Malgudi life produces a new kind of Malgudi novel. In the novel Narayan focuses on the art of storytelling and the world of a storyteller through the protagonist Nagaraj's sole obsession with writing a magnum opus on the celestial storyteller Narada. This paper traces a very different phase in Narayan's career, which starts with Talkative Man (1986) and sadly ends with this last novel.
