Rank Properties of Multiplicative Semigroup Reduct of Affine Near-Semirings over
arXiv:1311.0789
Abstract
This work investigates the rank properties of , the multiplicative semigroup reduct of the affine near-semirings over an aperiodic Brandt semigroup . In this connection, the work obtains the small rank, lower rank and large rank of . Further, the work provides lower bounds for intermediate rank and upper rank of .
