Abstract. We construct a free commutative dimonoid and
characterize the least idempotent congruence on this dimonoid.
1. Introduction
Jean-Louis Loday introduced the notion of a dimonoid [1]. Dimonoids
are a tool to study Leibniz algebras. A dimonoid is a set equipped with
two binary associative operations satisfying some axioms (see below).
If the operations of a dimonoid coincide, then the dimonoid becomes a
semigroup. The first result about dimonoids is the description of the
free dimonoid generated by a given set [1]. T. Pirashvili [2] introduced
the notion of a duplex which generalizes the notion of a dimonoid and
constructed a free duplex. In [3] it is proved that every commutative
dimonoid is a semilattice of archimedean subdimonoids.
In this paper we construct a free commutative dimonoid (Theorem
3), characterize the least idempotent congruence on this dimonoid and
the classes of this congruence (Theorem 4). Also we describe the free
commutative dimonoids of the small ranks (Propositions 3 and 4). In
section 4 we give some properties of commutative dimonoids.
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 08A05.

2. Preliminaries
A set D equipped with two binary associative operations ≺ and ≻ satis-
fying the following axioms:
(x ≺ y) ≺ z = x ≺ (y ≻ z),
(x ≻ y) ≺ z = x ≻ (y ≺ z),
(x ≺ y) ≻ z = x ≻ (y ≻ z)
for all x, y, z ∈ D, is called a dimonoid.
A map f from a dimonoid D1 to a dimonoid D2 is a homomorphism,
if (x ≺ y)f = xf ≺ yf, (x ≻ y)f = xf ≻ yf for all x, y ∈ D1.
If f : D1 → D2 is a homomorphism of dimonoids, then corresponding
congruence on D1 we denote by ∆f .
A subset T of a dimonoid (D, ≺,≻) is called a subdimonoid, if for
any a, b ∈ D, a, b ∈ T implies a ≺ b, a ≻ b ∈ T .
Now we give the necessary information about varieties of dimonoids.
A class H of algebraic systems is called a variety, if there exists such
family ℘ of identities of a signature Ω that H consists from that and only
that systems of the signature Ω in which all the formulas from ℘ are true.
Let H be some class of algebraic systems. We call an arbitrary alge-
braic system H
′
a H-system, if H
′
∈ H.
Theorem 1. (Birkhoff [4]) A nonempty class H of algebraic systems is
a variety if and only if the following conditions hold:
a) the Cartesian product of an arbitrary sequence of H-systems is a
H-system,
b) any subsystem of an arbitrary H-system is a H-system,
c) any homomorphic image of an arbitrary H-system is a H-system.
Observe that the class Dim of all dimonoids satisfies the conditions
of Birkhoff’s theorem and therefore it is a variety. Indeed, if suppose
℘ = {(x ≺ y) ≺ z = x ≺ (y ≻ z), (x ≻ y) ≺ z = x ≻ (y ≺ z),
(x ≺ y) ≻ z = x ≻ (y ≻ z)}, Ω = {≺, ≻},
then H = Dim is a variety.
Let U be a dimonoid and let R be some class of dimonoids. A
nonempty set X of some elements from U is called independent in U
with respect to the class R, if an arbitrary map from X into any R-
dimonoid M can be extended to a homomorphism from X̄ into M, where
X̄ is a subdimonoid generated by the elements of X in U .

A dimonoid U is called free concerning the class R, if in U there
exists a set X of elements which is independent with respect to R and
which generates the dimonoid U . The set X satisfying these properties
is called a R-free basis of the dimonoid U . The dimonoid U is called a
free dimonoid of rank m in the class R, if U ∈ R and in U there exists a
R-free basis of cardinality m.
The next assertion follows from Malchev’s book [5].
Proposition 1. If in the class R there exist free dimonoids of rank m,
then all they are isomorphic and any R-dimonoid having a generating set
of cardinality m is a homomorphic image of the free dimonoid of rank m
in R. In particular, if in R there exist free dimonoids of an arbitrary rank,
then every R-dimonoid U is a homomorphic image of the free dimonoid
of rank |U | in R.
The free dimonoids in the class Dim of all dimonoids are called ab-
solutely free. Note that the absolutely free dimonoid was constructed by
Loday [1]. It is clear that the variety Dim completely is defined by the
absolutely free dimonoids.
A variety R is called minimal, if R contains a dimonoid with more
than 1 element, and there are not others subvarieties in R, except R and
the trivial variety (containing 1-element dimonoids only). For any class
R let R̂ be a minimal variety which contains the class R.
The next assertion follows from Malchev’s book [5].
Proposition 2. A dimonoid U is free in some class if and only if it has
an independent generating set of elements. In this case the dimonoid U
is free in the variety Û .
A dimonoid (D,≺,≻) will be called a commutative (idempotent) di-
monoid, if both semigroups (D,≺) and (D,≻) are commutative (idem-
potent).
Observe that the class of commutative dimonoids is a subvariety of
the variety Dim. A dimonoid which is free in the variety of commutative
dimonoids will be called a free commutative dimonoid.
We finish this section with the formulations of some results from [3].
Lemma 1. ([3], Lemma 2) In a commutative dimonoid (D,≺,≻) the
equalities
(x ≺ y) ≺ z = x ≺ (y ≻ z) =
= (x ≻ y) ≺ z = x ≻ (y ≺ z) =
= (x ≺ y) ≻ z = x ≻ (y ≻ z)
hold for all x, y, z ∈ D.

.112 Free commutative dimonoids
From Lemma 1 it follows that the operations ≺ and ≻ of a commu-
tative dimonoid (D,≺,≻) are indistinguishable for three and more mul-
tipliers and the product of these elements doesn’t depend on the paren-
thesizing.
A commutative idempotent semigroup will be called a semilattice. If
ρ is a congruence on the dimonoid (D,≺,≻) such that (D,≺,≻)/ρ is an
idempotent dimonoid, then we say that ρ is an idempotent congruence.
Let (D,≺,≻) be a dimonoid with a commutative operation ≺, a, b ∈
D. We say that a ≺-divide b and write a≺|b, if there exists such element
x from (D,≺) with an identity that a ≺ x = b.
As usual N denotes the set of positive integers.
Let (D,≺,≻) be a dimonoid, a ∈ D, n ∈ N . Denote by an the degree
n of an element a concerning the operation ≺. Define a relation η on the
dimonoid (D,≺,≻) with a commutative operation ≺ by
aηb if and only if there exist positive integers
m, n, m 6= 1, n 6= 1 such that a≺|b
m, b≺|a
n.
Theorem 2. ([3], Theorem 1) The relation η on the dimonoid (D,≺,≻)
with a commutative operation ≺ is the least idempotent congruence, and
(D,≺,≻)/η is a commutative idempotent dimonoid which is a semilattice.
3. Constructions
In this section we construct a free commutative dimonoid, describe the
least idempotent congruence η on this dimonoid and characterize the
corresponding classes of the congruence. We also consider separately the
free commutative dimonoids of the rank 1 and 2.
Let A be an alphabet, F [A] be a free commutative semigroup over A,
G be a set of non-ordered pairs (p, q), p, q ∈ A. Define the operations ≺
and ≻ on the set F [A]
⋃
G by
a1...am ≺ b1...bn = a1...amb1...bn,
a1...am ≻ b1...bn =
{
a1...amb1...bn, mn > 1,
(a1, b1), m = n = 1,
a1...am ≺ (p, q) = a1...am ≻ (p, q) = a1...ampq,
(p, q) ≺ a1...am = (p, q) ≻ a1...am = pqa1...am,
(p, q) ≺ (r, s) = (p, q) ≻ (r, s) = pqrs
for all a1...am, b1...bn ∈ F [A], (p, q), (r, s) ∈ G. An immediate verifica-
tion shows that axioms of a dimonoid hold concerning the operations ≺,≻

and thus, (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) is a dimonoid. It is clear that the operations
≺,≻ are commutative.
Theorem 3. (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) is a free commutative dimonoid.
Proof. Show that (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) is free.
Let (T,≺
′
,≻
′
) be an arbitrary commutative dimonoid, α : A → T an
arbitrary map. Define a map
θ : (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) → (T,≺

) : w 7→ wθ,
assuming
wθ =

... ≺
′
amα, w = a1...am,
pα ≻
′
qα, w = (p, q)
for all w ∈ F [A]
⋃
G.
We show that θ is a homomorphism. For arbitrary elements a1...am, b1...bn ∈
F [A], (p, q), (r, s) ∈ G we obtain
(a1...am ≺ b1...bn)θ = (a1...amb1...bn)θ =
= a1α ≺

(r, s)θ
by Lemma 1. So, (w1 ≺ w2)θ = w1θ ≺
′
w2θ for all w1, w2 ∈ F [A]
⋃
G. If
mn > 1, then
(a1...am ≻ b1...bn)θ = (a1...amb1...bn)θ =

by Lemma 1. In the case m = n = 1,
(a1 ≻ b1)θ = (a1, b1)θ =
= a1α ≻

b1α = a1θ ≻

b1θ.
Moreover,
(a1...am ≻ (p, q))θ = (a1...ampq)θ =

qα ≻

rα ≻

sα =

by Lemma 1.
So, (w1 ≻ w2)θ = w1θ ≻
′
w2θ for all w1, w2 ∈ F [A]
⋃
G.
Now we describe the least idempotent congruence η (see section 2)
on the free commutative dimonoid and characterize the corresponding
classes of this congruence.
Recall that N denotes the set of positive integers. Define the opera-
tions ≺ and ≻ on the set N
⋃
{2̃} by
m ≺ n = m+ n,
m ≺ 2̃ = 2̃ ≺ m = m ≻ 2̃ = 2̃ ≻ m = m+ 2,
m ≻ n =
{
2̃, m = n = 1,
m+ n otherwise,
2̃ ≺ 2̃ = 2̃ ≻ 2̃ = 4
for all m, n ∈ N . The set N
⋃
{2̃} with the operations ≺ and ≻ is a
dimonoid. We denote the dimonoid obtained by N(2̃).
Define the operation ≺ on the set N2
⋃
{1} by
(m,n) ≺ (p, l) = (m+ p, n+ l),

(m,n) ≺ 1 = 1 ≺ (m,n) =
= (m+ 1, n+ 1), 1 ≺ 1 = (2, 2)
for all (m,n), (p, l) ∈ N2. The set N2
⋃
{1} concerning this operation is
a semigroup. We denote by N2
(1)
this semigroup.
Denote by Nk the Cartesian product of k copies of the additive semi-
group of positive integers.
For every w ∈ F [A] the set of all elements x ∈ A occurring in w will
be denoted by c(w) and assume
d(u) =
{
{p, q}, u = (p, q) ∈ G,
c(u), u ∈ F [A]
for all u ∈ F [A]
⋃
G. The equivalence
w1ηw2 ⇔ d(w1) = d(w2)
for all w1, w2 ∈ (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) follows immediately from Theorem 2.
Denote by F the dimonoid (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻)/η .
Theorem 4. The dimonoid F is a semilattice isomorphic to the semi-
lattice Ω(A) of nonempty finite subsets of the set A with respect to the
operation of a union. Let Fw be a class of the congruence η on the di-
monoid (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) with a representative w ∈ Fw. Then
1) if |d(w)| = 1, then Fw
∼= N(2̃),
2) if |d(w)| = 2, then Fw
∼= N2
(1)
,
3) if |d(w)| = k ≥ 3, then Fw
∼= Nk.
Proof. It is immediate to cheek that the map
d : F → Ω(A) : Fw 7→ d(w)
is an isomrphism.
Let |d(w)| = 1 and let d(w) = {x}. It is easy to cheek that the map
α1 : Fw → N(2̃) : u 7→ uα1 =
{
s, u = xs,
2̃, u = (x, x)
is an isomorphism.
If |d(w)| = 2, d(w) = {x, y} and u = xs1ys2 is the canonical form of
a word u ∈ Fw\{(x, y)}, s1, s2 ∈ N , then we can show that the map
α2 : Fw → N2
(1)
: v 7→ vα2 =
{
(s, t), v = xsyt,
1, v = (x, y)

Finally, let |d(w)| = k ≥ 3 and let u = x

k be the canonical
form of a word u ∈ Fw, xi ∈ A, pi ∈ N, 1 ≤ i ≤ k. It is not difficult to

Now we consider the free commutative dimonoids of the small ranks.
Proposition 3. If |A| = 1, then
(F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) ∼= N(2̃).
Proof. Let A = {a}. Define a map
µ : (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) → N(2̃) : w 7→ wµ,
where
wµ =
{
k, w = ak ∈ F [A],
2̃, w = (a, a).
An immediate verification shows that µ is an isomorphism.
Let Ñ = (N0 × N0)\{(0, 0)}, where N0 is the additive semigroup
of positive integers with a zero, and let {1, 2̃, 2̄} be an arbitrary three-
element set. Define the operations ≺ and ≻ on the set Ñ
⋃
{1, 2̃, 2̄} by
(m,n) ∗ 1 = 1 ∗ (m,n) = (m+ 1, n+ 1),
(m,n) ∗ 2̃ = 2̃ ∗ (m,n) = (m+ 2, n),
(m,n) ∗ 2̄ = 2̄ ∗ (m,n) = (m, n+ 2),
1 ∗ 1 = (2, 2), 2̃ ∗ 2̃ = (4, 0), 2̄ ∗ 2̄ = (0, 4),
1 ∗ 2̃ = 2̃ ∗ 1 = (3, 1), 2̃ ∗ 2̄ = 2̄ ∗ 2̃ = (2, 2),
1 ∗ 2̄ = 2̄ ∗ 1 = (1, 3),
where ∗ =≺ or ≻, and
(m,n) ≺ (p, l) = (m+ p, n+ l),
(m,n) ≻ (p, l) =
1, if (m,n) = (1, 0), (p, l) = (0, 1),
1, if (m,n) = (0, 1), (p, l) = (1, 0),
2̃, if (m,n) = (p, l) = (1, 0),
2̄, if (m,n) = (p, l) = (0, 1),
(m+ p, n+ l) otherwise
for all (m,n), (p, l) ∈ Ñ . A long verification shows that (Ñ
⋃
{1, 2̃, 2̄},≺
,≻) is a dimonoid. We denote this dimonoid by N(1,2̃,2̄).

Proposition 4. If |A| = 2, then
(F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) ∼= N(1,2̃,2̄).
Proof. Let A = {a, b} and let u = ambn be the canonical form of a word
u ∈ F [A],m, n ∈ N0 (m and n are not equal to a zero concurrently).
Define a map
τ : (F [A]
⋃

where
wτ =
(m,n), w = ambn ∈ F [A],
1, w = (a, b) ∈ G,
2̃, w = (a, a) ∈ G,
2̄, w = (b, b) ∈ G.
An immediate verification shows that τ is an isomorphism.
4. Some properties
In this section we describe some properties of commutative dimonoids.
Recall the definitions of Green’s relations on a semigroup S. Green’s
relations on S are called the binary relations:
L = {(x; y) ∈ S × S
∣
∣S1 x = S1y},
ℜ = {(x; y) ∈ S × S |xS 1 = yS1},
ℑ = {(x; y) ∈ S × S
∣
∣S1xS1 = S1yS1},
H = L
⋂
ℜ, D = L ◦ ℜ,
where S1 is a semigroup with an identity, L ◦ ℜ is the composition of
binary relations.
Let (D,≺,≻) be a dimonoid and let K be one of Green’s relations on
(D,≺). Then we will call K a Green’s relation on the dimonoid (D,≺,≻).
Lemma 2. In a commutative dimonoid (D,≺,≻) all Green’s relations
coincide and are congruences.
Proof. An equality of Green’s relations on (D,≺,≻) follows from the
equality of Green’s relations on the commutative semigroup (D,≺) (see
[6]). It is well-known also that the relation L is a congruence on the semi-
group (D,≺) (see [6]). We show that L is compatible with the operation
≻.

Let xLy, x, y, c ∈ D. Then y = t1 ≺ x, x = t2 ≺ y for some
t1, t2 ∈ D. Hence,
c ≻ y = c ≻ (t1 ≺ x) = (c ≻ t1) ≺ x =
= (t1 ≻ c) ≺ x = t1 ≺ (c ≻ x),
c ≻ x = c ≻ (t2 ≺ y) = (c ≻ t2) ≺ y =
= (t2 ≻ c) ≺ y = t2 ≺ (c ≻ y)
according to Lemma 1. So, c ≻ xL c ≻ y. From the commutativity of
the operation ≻ it follows that x ≻ cL y ≻ c. Thus, L is a congruence
on (D,≺,≻).
Corollary 1. Green’s relations on the free commutative dimonoid (F [A]
⋃
G, ≺,≻) are equal to the diagonal of F [A]

G.
Let (D,≺,≻) be a commutative dimonoid, n ∈ N, n > 1. Recall
that we denote by an the degree n of an element a ∈ D concerning the
operation ≺.
Lemma 3. The map β : x 7→ xn is an endomorphism of the commuta-
tive dimonoid (D,≺,≻) and the operations of the dimonoid (D,≺,≻)/∆β
coincide.
Proof. If a, b ∈ D, then
(a ≺ b)β = (a ≺ b)n =
= an ≺ bn = aβ ≺ bβ,
(a ≻ b)β = (a ≻ b)n = an ≺ bn =
= an ≻ bn = aβ ≻ bβ
according to Lemma 1. As, in a commutative dimonoid, (a ≺ b)n = (a ≻
b)n for all a, b ∈ D, n ∈ N, n > 1, then the operations of (D,≺,≻)/∆β
coincide.
Corollary 2. The map β is a homomorphism from the commutative
dimonoid (D,≺,≻) to the semigroup (D,≺).
For all h = (x, y) ∈ G let [h] be an element xy ∈ F [A].

Corollary 3. Let (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) be a free commutative dimonoid. For
all w, u ∈ (F [A]
⋃
G,≺,≻) we have w∆βu if and only if one of the fol-
lowing statements holds:
(i) if w, u ∈ F [A], then w = u,
(ii) if w ∈ G, then u = [w] or u = w,
(iii) if u ∈ G, then w = [u] or w = u.
