Regularity and Products of Idemopotents in Endmorphism Monoids of Projective Acts

Abstract

That the monoid of all transformations of any set and the monoid of all endomorphisms of any vector space over a division ring are regular (in the sense of von Neumann) has been known for many years (see [6] and [16], respectively). A common generalization of these results to the endomorphism monoid of an independence algebra can be found in [13]. It also follows from [13] that the endomorphism monoid of a free G-act is regular, where G is any group. In the present paper we use a version of the wreath product construction of [8], [9] to determine the projective right S-acts (S any monoid) whose endomorphism monoid is regular
