SemiBase

Variety V[8856]

The variety generated by [6, 8856]: all semigroups that satisfy every identity of [6, 8856]. 7 semigroups of order six generate it, and 3,460 semigroups of order six lie in it.

Shortest known basis

3 identities irredundant

  1. x² ≈ x⁴
  2. x²y³ ≈ xyx
  3. xy²z² ≈ xzy²z

Irredundant: none of these identities follows from the others; for each, a semigroup satisfies the others but not it. Obtained from a certified basis by removing identities that follow from the others (Vampire). Shortest known, not known to be minimal.

A variety lies above another when it contains it. An inclusion holds when the basis of the smaller variety derives that of the larger one, proved by Vampire; it fails when a semigroup of order six lies in the one and not in the other.
