The Jordan-Hölder Theorem for Monoids with Group Action

Abstract

In this article, we prove an isomorphism theorem for the case of refinement $\Gamma$-monoids. Based on this we show a version of the well-known Jordan-Hölder theorem in this framework. The main theorem of this article states that - as in the case of modules - a monoid $T$ has a $\Gamma$-composition series if and only if it is both $\Gamma$-Noetherian and $\Gamma$-Artinian. As in module theory, these two concepts can be defined via ascending and descending chains respectively.
