Identity basis

Shortest known basis: 2 identities irredundant

  1. x² ≈ y²
  2. x³y ≈ xy

Irredundant: none of these identities follows from the others; for each, a semigroup satisfies the others but not it. Obtained from a basis certified in Lean by removing identities that follow from the others, with the prover Vampire; the equivalence rests on Vampire's proofs, not on Lean. Shortest known, not known to be minimal.

Basis certified in Lean: 3 identities

  1. x² ≈ y²
  2. xy ≈ yx
  3. x³y ≈ xy

Lean proof

Endpoint theorem: SemigroupBasis.Generated.Order6EmbeddingTransfers.S6_237.representative_basis

Table
The theorem is about the semigroup with exactly this table.
Method
embedding transfer. A semigroup S with a certified basis lies in the variety of this one, as a subsemigroup, and this semigroup satisfies the basis of S. Then every identity of this semigroup holds in S and follows from the basis, so the basis of S is a basis here too.
Size
Checking this class alone compiles 24 Lean files with 9,119 lines: the endpoint theorem and everything it imports, the shared library included. All of it is shared with the proofs of other classes.
Census
SemiBase.Census.S6_237 checks that the theorem is about the table of this class and concludes Classified; SemiBase.Catalogue.Order6.S6_237 is the table, with the elements numbered 0 to 5.

Variety

[6, 237] generates the variety V[186]; 8 other semigroups of order six generate it too, and 10 semigroups of order six lie in it. [6, 237] lies in 120 of the 505 varieties of the census, those whose basis it satisfies.
