Abstract
We study the semigroup , which is introduced in the paper [O. Gutik and M. Mykhalenych, \emph{On some generalization of the bicyclic monoid}, Visnyk Lviv. Univ. Ser. Mech.-Mat. \textbf{90} (2020), 5--19 (in Ukrainian)], in the case when the family generated by the set . We show that the Green relations and coincide in , the semigroup is isomorphic to the semigroup of partial convex order isomorphisms of of the rank , and admits only Rees congruences. Also, we study shift-continuous topologies on the semigroup . In particular we prove that for any shift-continuous -topology on the semigroup every non-zero element of is an isolated point of , admits the unique compact shift-continuous -topology, and every -compact shift-continuous -topology is compact. We describe the closure of the semigroup in a Hausdorff semitopological semigroup and prove the criterium when a topological inverse semigroup is -closed in the class of Hausdorff topological semigroups.
