ASAftab Hussain ShahBSBana Al Subaiei

Key Points

  • The aim is to study morphisms in right groups, focusing on their categorical structure and enumeration.
  • Analyzed right groups as direct products of groups and right-zero semigroups.
  • Established equivalence RGp≃Grp×Set for studying morphisms.
  • Derived explicit descriptions for homomorphisms, epimorphisms, and automorphisms.
  • Developed counting formulas for finite right groups.
  • Derived exact counting formulas for morphisms and automorphisms in finite right groups.
  • Found that morphism sets grow exponentially or superexponentially in the right-zero component.
  • Identified that the growth in the right-zero component dominates the group-theoretic contribution.

Abstract

Right groups are regular semigroups admitting a canonical decomposition as direct products G×R of group G with right–zero semigroup R. We study morphisms in the category of right groups using the equivalence RGp≃Grp×Set. This yields explicit descriptions of homomorphisms, kernels, images, quotients, and congruences and componentwise characterisations of epimorphisms and image–coimage factorisations. For finite right groups, we obtain exact counting formulas for homomorphisms, epimorphisms, and automorphisms, together with finiteness criteria and asymptotic growth estimates. We show that morphism sets typically grow exponentially or superexponentially in the right–zero component, which asymptotically dominates the group-theoretic contribution in all cases.
