Abstract:

In 1945 M. P. Schützenberger exhibited two identities. He asserted that one provided an equational base for the diamond ${M_3}$ and the other a base for the pentagon ${N_5}$. Recently Ralph McKenzie produced another equational base for ${N_5}$. In the present paper the authors modify McKenzie’s idea to verify Schützenberger’s assertion for ${M_3}$. They also show Schützenberger’s claim about ${N_5}$ is false.
