SubSemi

GAP package for enumerating subsemigroups of semigroup, deciding isomorphisms and constructing embeddings. The algorithms assume that the elements of the semigroups can be fully calculated, therefore their applicability is limited to relatively small semigroups.

The original motivation for developing the package was the computational enumeration of transformation semigroups up to degree 4. Instructions for recomputing those results can be found in the data/T4 folder.

The code is highly experimental with no user documentation, only inline comments. The algorithms are described on a high level in the preprint 'On Enumerating Transformation Semigroups' http://arxiv.org/abs/1403.0274

The enumeration was extended to other diagram semigroups, see the data/SMALLDEGREE folder and the preprint http://arxiv.org/abs/1502.07150 'Finite Diagram Semigroups: Extending the Computational Horizon'.

Installation

Just cloning the repository under GAP/pkg/ and copying (and possibly editing) config_EXAMPLE.g to config.g.
