Abstract:

An equational theory of a very small semigroup may fail to be finitely presented. A well-known example of such a semigroup was studied in detail by Peter Perkins some twenty years ago. We prove that the natural representation of his semigroup has a finite basis of identical relations and discuss this fact in a general context of universal algebra.
