“…This condition arises from axiomatisability properties of classes of right M-acts and states that for any a; b 2 M the subact of the direct product right M-act M Â M given by Rða; bÞ ¼ fðu; vÞ 2 M Â M : au ¼ bvg is finitely generated. It was shown that R is independent of being weakly right noetherian [12]. The next corollary comes from Lemma 3.11 and the results of [10].…”

“…We end this section with a brief discussion of another finiteness condition for a monoid M, namely R [12]. This condition arises from axiomatisability properties of classes of right M-acts and states that for any a; b 2 M the subact of the direct product right M-act M Â M given by Rða; bÞ ¼ fðu; vÞ 2 M Â M : au ¼ bvg is finitely generated.…”

We define a semigroup S to be right ideal Howson if the intersection of any two finitely generated right ideals, or, equivalently, any two principal right ideals, is again finitely generated. We give many examples of such semigroups, including right coherent monoids, finitely aligned semigroups, and inverse semigroups. We investigate the closure of the class of right ideal Howson semigroups under algebraic constructions. For any n 2 N 0 we give a presentation of a right ideal Howson semigroup possessing an intersection of principal right ideals that requires exactly n generators that is, in a particular sense, universal. We give analogous presentations for commutative, and for commutative cancellative, (right) ideal Howson semigroups.

This term is in honour of the author of [15], who showed that the intersection of finitely generated subgroups of free groups is finitely generated. There have been a number of investigations of the Howson property for other classes of algebras. In particular, the Howson property for inverse semigroups has been studied by several authors such as Jones and Trotter [16, 17], Lawson and Vdovina [20] and Silva and Soares [25].

“…Acts are in the focus of contemporary research as well. In particular, there is much activity in describing monoids through acts over monoids, and for more recent results on this, we refer to [7]. If M is an S-act, we put FM = {x ∈ M | xa = x (a ∈ S)}, the set of zeroes of M (see [10]).…”
