Free normal dibands
Anatolii V. Zhuchok
Communicated by V. I. Sushchansky
Abstract. We construct a free normal diband, a free (ℓn, n)-
diband, a free (n, rn)-diband and a free (ℓn, rn)-diband. We also
describe the structure of free normal dibands and characterize some
least congruences on these dibands.
1. Introduction and preliminaries
The notions of a dialgebra and a dimonoid were introduced
by J.-L. Loday [1]. For further details and background see [1], [10].
J.-L. Loday constructed a free dimonoid [1]. Pirashvili [3] introduced
the notion of a duplex and constructed a free duplex. Dimonoids in the
sense of Loday [1] are examples of duplexes. In [6] a free commutative di-
monoid was constructed. Free rectangular dimonoids (rectangular dibands)
were construcred in [9].
In this paper the research which was started in [6] and [9] is continued.
Here we construct a free normal diband, a free (ℓn, n)-diband, a free
(n, rn)-diband and a free (ℓn, rn)-diband. It turns out that the operations
of a dimonoid with left (right) normal bands coincide and it is a left (right)
normal band. We also describe the structure of free normal dibands and,
as a consequence, obtain the description of some least congruences on free
normal dibands.
We refer to [6] and [9] for the terminology and notations.

Key words and phrases: normal diband, free normal diband, diband of subdi-
monoids, dimonoid, semigroup.
A. V. Zhuchok 113
Recall that an idempotent semigroup S is called a normal band, if
axya = ayxa for all a, x, y ∈ S. It is well-known that a normal band
satisfies any identity of the form
ax1x2...xnb = ax1πx2π...xnπb, (1)
where π is a permutation of {1, 2, ..., n}.
A dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) will be called a normal diband, if both semigroups
(D,⊣) and (D,⊢) are normal bands.
Lemma 1. ([11], Sect. 3.5, Lemma) Let (D,⊣,⊢) be an arbitrary di-
monoid, x, ai ∈ D, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, n ∈ N , n > 1. Then
(i) (an ⊣ ... ⊣ ai ⊣ ... ⊣ a1) ⊢ x = an ⊢ ... ⊢ ai ⊢ ... ⊢ a1 ⊢ x;
(ii) x ⊣ (a1 ⊢ ... ⊢ ai ⊢ ... ⊢ an) = x ⊣ a1 ⊣ ... ⊣ ai ⊣ ... ⊣ an.
Lemma 2. Let (D,⊣,⊢) be an idempotent dimonoid. Then (D,⊣) is a
normal band if and only if (D,⊢) is a normal band.
Proof. If (D,⊣) is a normal band, a, x, y ∈ D, then
a ⊣ x ⊣ y ⊣ a = a ⊣ y ⊣ x ⊣ a.
Multiplying both parts of the last equality on the right by a concerning
the operation ⊢, we obtain
(a ⊣ x ⊣ y ⊣ a) ⊢ a = a ⊢ x ⊢ y ⊢ a ⊢ a = a ⊢ x ⊢ y ⊢ a,
(a ⊣ y ⊣ x ⊣ a) ⊢ a = a ⊢ y ⊢ x ⊢ a ⊢ a = a ⊢ y ⊢ x ⊢ a
according to Lemma 1 (i) and the idempotent property of the operation
⊢. So, (D,⊢) is a normal band.
Conversely, let (D,⊢) be a normal band. Then
a ⊢ x ⊢ y ⊢ a = a ⊢ y ⊢ x ⊢ a
for all a, x, y ∈ D. Multiplying both parts of the last equality on the left
by a concerning the operation ⊣, we obtain
a ⊣ (a ⊢ x ⊢ y ⊢ a) = a ⊣ a ⊣ x ⊣ y ⊣ a = a ⊣ x ⊣ y ⊣ a,
a ⊣ (a ⊢ y ⊢ x ⊢ a) = a ⊣ a ⊣ y ⊣ x ⊣ a = a ⊣ y ⊣ x ⊣ a
according to Lemma 1 (ii) and the idempotent property of the operation
⊣. So, (D,⊣) is a normal band.
114 Free normal dibands
For an arbitrary nonempty set X denote the set of all nonempty finite
subsets of X by B[X].
Let (D,⊣,⊢) be an arbitrary dimonoid and D be a totally ordered set.
For every A = {x1, x2, ..., xn} ∈ B[D] assume
−→
A = x1 ⊢ x2 ⊢ ... ⊢ xn,
←−
A = x1 ⊣ x2 ⊣ ... ⊣ xn,
where x1 < x2 < ... < xn in the total order.
Using the identity (1), the idempotent property of the operations of a
normal diband and Lemma 1, we can prove the following lemma.
Lemma 3. Let (D,⊣,⊢) be a normal diband, D be a totally ordered set
and A,B,C ∈ B[D], C ⊆ B, a ∈ A, x, y ∈ D. Then

Note that the class of normal dibands is a subclass of the variety of
all dimonoids which is closed under the taking of homomorphic images,
subdimonoids and Cartesian products. Therefore it is a subvariety of the
variety of all dimonoids. A dimonoid which is free in the variety of normal
dibands will be called a free normal diband.
The necessary information about varieties of dimonoids can be found
in [6].
Now we consider a free rectangular dimonoid [9].
Let In = {1, 2, ..., n}, n > 1 and let {Xi}i∈In be a family of arbitrary
nonempty sets Xi, i ∈ In. Define the operations ⊣ and ⊢ on
∏
i∈In
Xi by
(x1, ..., xn) ⊣ (y1, ..., yn) = (x1, ..., xn−1, yn),
(x1, ..., xn) ⊢ (y1, ..., yn) = (x1, y2, ..., yn)
for all (x1, ..., xn), (y1, ..., yn) ∈
∏
i∈In
Xi.
Lemma 4. ([9], Lemma 4) For any n > 1, (
∏
i∈In
Xi,⊣,⊢) is a rectan-
gular dimonoid.
A. V. Zhuchok 115
Obviously, for any n > 1, (
∏
i∈In
Xi,⊣,⊢) is a normal diband. Let X
be an arbitrary nonempty set and X3 = X × X × X. We denote the
dimonoid (X3,⊣,⊢) by FRct(X).
Theorem 1. ([9], Theorem 1) FRct(X) is a free rectangular dimonoid.
If f : D1 → D2 is a homomorphism of dimonoids, then the correspond-
ing congruence on D1 will be denoted by ∆f .
2. Free normal dibands
In this section we construct a free normal diband.
Let {Di}i∈I be a family of arbitrary dimonoids Di, i ∈ I and let∏
i∈IDi be a set of all functions f : I →
⋃
i∈I Di such that if ∈ Di for
any i ∈ I. It easy to check that
∏
i∈IDi with multiplications defined by
i(f ⊣ g) = if ⊣ ig, i(f ⊢ g) = if ⊢ ig,
where i ∈ I, f, g ∈
∏
i∈IDi, is a dimonoid. It is called the Cartesian product
of dimonoids Di, i ∈ I. Observe that if I is finite, then the Cartesian
product and the direct product coincide. The Cartesian product of a finite
number of dimonoids D1, D2, ..., Dn is denoted by D1 ×D2 × ...×Dn.
Let FRct(X) be the free rectangular dimonoid (see Sect. 1), B(X) be
the semilattice of all nonempty finite subsets of X with respect to the
operation of the set theoretical union and let
FND(X) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FRct(X)×B(X) |x, y, z ∈ A}.
The main result of this section is the following.
Theorem 2. FND(X) is a free normal diband.
Proof. Clearly, FRct(X) × B(X) is a dimonoid (see above). It is not
difficult to see that FND(X) is a subdimonoid of FRct(X)×B(X). It
is clear that the operations ⊣ and ⊢ of FND(X) are idempotent. For all
((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B), ((s, c, t), C) ∈ FND(X) we have
((x, y, z), A) ⊣ ((a, b, c), B) ⊣ ((s, c, t), C) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) =
= ((x, y, c), A ∪B) ⊣ ((s, c, t), C) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) =
= ((x, y, t), A ∪B ∪ C) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) = ((x, y, z), A ∪B ∪ C),
((x, y, z), A) ⊣ ((s, c, t), C) ⊣ ((a, b, c), B) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) =
= ((x, y, t), A ∪ C) ⊣ ((a, b, c), B) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) =
116 Free normal dibands
= ((x, y, c), A ∪ C ∪B) ⊣ ((x, y, z), A) = ((x, y, z), A ∪ C ∪B).
Hence FND(X) is a normal band concerning the operation ⊣. By Lemma
2 FND(X) is a normal band concerning the operation ⊢. So, FND(X)
is a normal diband.
Let us show that FND(X) is free.
Let (T,⊣
′
,⊢
′
) be an arbitrary normal diband, T be a totally ordered set
and let γ : X → T be an arbitrary map. For every A = {x1, x2, ..., xn} ∈
B[X] assume Aγ = {xiγ | 1 ≤ i ≤ n} and define a map
µ : FND(X)→ (T, ⊣′, ⊢′) : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ,
assuming
((x, y, z), A)µ = xγ ⊢′
−→
Aγ ⊢
′ yγ ⊣′
←−
Aγ ⊣

for all ((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X).
We show that µ is a homomorphism. We will use the axioms of a
dimonoid, Lemma 3 and the idempotent property of the operations.
For arbitrary elements ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈ FND(X) we have

Thus,
(((x, y, z), A) ⊣ ((a, b, c), B))µ = ((x, y, z), A)µ ⊣′ ((a, b, c), B)µ
for all ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈ FND(X). Analogously, we can prove
that
(((x, y, z), A) ⊢ ((a, b, c), B))µ = ((x, y, z), A)µ ⊢′ ((a, b, c), B)µ
for all ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈ FND(X). This completes the proof
of Theorem 2.
Obviously, the free normal diband FND(X) generated by a finite set
X is finite. Specifically, |FND(X)| =
∑
A∈B[X] |A|

3. Dimonoids and (left, right) normal bands
In this section we show that the operations of a dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢)
with a left (respectively, right) normal band (D,⊢) (respectively, (D,⊣))
coincide and construct a free (ℓn, n)-diband, a free (n, rn)-diband and a
free (ℓn, rn)-diband.
Recall that an idempotent semigroup S is called a left normal band, if
axy = ayx (2)
for all a, x, y ∈ S. If instead of (2) the identity
xya = yxa (3)
holds, then S is a right normal band. It is well-known that a left normal
band satisfies any identity of the form
ax1x2...xn = ax1πx2π...xnπ, (4)
where π is a permutation of {1, 2, ..., n}. Dually, a right normal band
satisfies any identity of the form
x1x2...xna = x1πx2π...xnπa, (5)
where π is a permutation of {1, 2, ..., n}.
118 Free normal dibands
Lemma 5. The operations of a dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) coincide, if one of the
following conditions holds:
(i) (D,⊢) is a left normal band;
(ii) (D,⊣) is a right normal band.
Proof. (i) For all x, y, z ∈ D we have
x ⊢ (y ⊣ z) = x ⊢ (y ⊣ z) ⊢ (y ⊣ z) =
= x ⊢ (y ⊢ z) ⊢ (y ⊣ z) = x ⊢ (y ⊣ z) ⊢ (y ⊢ z) =
= x ⊢ (y ⊢ z) ⊢ (y ⊢ z) = x ⊢ (y ⊢ z) =
= (x ⊢ y) ⊢ z = (x ⊢ y) ⊣ z
according to the idempotent property of the operation ⊢, the axioms of a
dimonoid and the identity (2). Substituting y = x in the last equality and
using the idempotent property of the operation ⊢, we obtain x ⊢ z = x ⊣ z.
(ii) For all x, y, z ∈ D we have
(x ⊢ y) ⊣ z = (x ⊢ y) ⊣ (x ⊢ y) ⊣ z =
= (x ⊢ y) ⊣ (x ⊣ y) ⊣ z = (x ⊣ y) ⊣ (x ⊢ y) ⊣ z =
= (x ⊣ y) ⊣ (x ⊣ y) ⊣ z = (x ⊣ y) ⊣ z =
= x ⊣ (y ⊣ z) = x ⊢ (y ⊣ z)
according to the idempotent property of the operation ⊣, the axioms of a
dimonoid and the identity (3). Substituting z = y in the last equality and
using the idempotent property of the operation ⊣, we obtain x ⊣ y = x ⊢
y.
From Lemma 5 (i) (respectively, Lemma 5 (ii)) it follows that a di-
monoid (D,⊣,⊢) with left (respectively, right) normal bands (D,⊣) and
(D,⊢) is a left (respectively, right) normal band.
Consider the semigroups Xℓz, Xrz, Xrb and the dimonoids Xℓz,rz,
Xrb,rz, Xℓz,rb which were defined in [9]. It is easy to see that Xℓz, Xrz,
Xrb are normal bands and Xℓz,rz, Xrb,rz, Xℓz,rb are normal dibands.
Let
Brb(X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Xrb ×B(X) |x, y ∈ A},
Bℓz(X) = {(x,A) ∈ Xℓz ×B(X) |x ∈ A},
Brz(X) = {(x,A) ∈ Xrz ×B(X) |x ∈ A},
Bℓz,rb(X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Xℓz,rb ×B(X) |x, y ∈ A},
Brb,rz(X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Xrb,rz ×B(X) |x, y ∈ A},
A. V. Zhuchok 119
Bℓz,rz(X) = {(x,A) ∈ Xℓz,rz ×B(X) |x ∈ A}.
It is clear that Brb(X), Bℓz(X), Brz(X) are subsemigroups of Xrb ×
B(X), Xℓz ×B(X), Xrz ×B(X) respectively, and Bℓz,rb(X), Brb,rz(X),
Bℓz,rz(X) are subdimonoids of Xℓz,rb×B(X),Xrb,rz×B(X),Xℓz,rz×B(X)
respectively. By [2] Brb(X), Bℓz(X) and Brz(X) are the free normal band,
the free left normal band and the free right normal band respectively.
A dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) will be called a (ℓn, n)-diband, if (D,⊣) is a left
normal band and (D,⊢) is a normal band. A dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) will be
called a (n, rn)-diband, if (D,⊣) is a normal band and (D,⊢) is a right
normal band. A dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) will be called a (ℓn, rn)-diband, if
(D,⊣) is a left normal band and (D,⊢) is a right normal band.
Note that every left (right) normal band is normal and the class of
(ℓn, n)-dibands ((n, rn)-dibands, (ℓn, rn)-dibands) is a subvariety of the
variety of all normal dibands. A dimonoid which is free in the variety
of (ℓn, n)-dibands (respectively, (n, rn)-dibands, (ℓn, rn)-dibands) will be
called a free (ℓn, n)-diband (respectively, free (n, rn)-diband, free (ℓn, rn)-
diband).
For the proofs of the following three lemmas we will use the notations
from Sect. 1 and from the proof of Theorem 2.
Lemma 6. Bℓz,rb(X) is a free (ℓn, n)-diband.
Proof. Clearly, Bℓz,rb(X) is a (ℓn, n)-diband. Let us show that Bℓz,rb(X)
is free.
Let (T,⊣
′
,⊢
′
) be an arbitrary (ℓn, n)-diband, T be a totally ordered
set and let γ : X → T be an arbitrary map. Define the map
φℓn,n : Bℓz,rb(X)→ (T, ⊣′, ⊢′) :
((x, y), A) 7→ ((x, y), A)φℓn,n = xγ ⊢′
−→
Aγ ⊢
′ yγ ⊣′
←−
Aγ .
Similarly to the proof of Theorem 2, we can show that φℓn,n is a homo-
morphism. For this, we also use (4).
Lemma 7. Brb,rz(X) is a free (n, rn)-diband.
Proof. Obviously, Brb,rz(X) is a (n, rn)-diband. Show that Brb,rz(X) is
free.
Let (T,⊣
′
,⊢

) be an arbitrary (n, rn)-diband, T be a totally ordered
set and let γ : X → T be an arbitrary map. Define the map
φn,rn : Brb,rz(X)→ (T, ⊣′, ⊢′) :
((x, y), A) 7→ ((x, y), A)φn,rn =
−→
Aγ ⊢

Aγ ⊣

Analysis similar to that in the proof of Theorem 2 shows that φn,rn is a
homomorphism. Our proof also uses (5).
120 Free normal dibands
Lemma 8. Bℓz,rz(X) is a free (ℓn, rn)-diband.
Proof. It is evident that Bℓz,rz(X) is a (ℓn, rn)-diband. Let (T,⊣
′
,⊢
′
) be
an arbitrary (ℓn, rn)-diband, T be a totally ordered set and let γ : X → T
be an arbitrary map. Define the map
φℓn,rn : Bℓz,rz(X)→ (T, ⊣′, ⊢′) :
(x,A) 7→ (x,A)φℓn,rn =
−→
Aγ ⊢
′ xγ ⊣′
←−
Aγ .
Similarly to the proof of Theorem 2, the fact that φℓn,rn is a homomorphism
can be proved. To do this, also use (4) and (5).
4. Decompositions of FND(X)
In this section we describe the structure of free normal dibands and
characterize some least congruences on these dibands.
Let
B(i,j,k)(X) = {A ∈ B(X) | i, j, k ∈ A},
B
(i)
rb (X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Brb(X) | i ∈ A},
B
(i,j)
ℓz (X) = {(x,A) ∈ Bℓz(X) | i, j ∈ A},
B(i,j)
rz (X) = {(x,A) ∈ Brz(X) | i, j ∈ A},
B
(i)
ℓz,rb(X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Bℓz,rb(X) | i ∈ A},
B
(i)
rb,rz(X) = {((x, y), A) ∈ Brb,rz(X) | i ∈ A},
B
(i,j)
ℓz,rz(X) = {(x,A) ∈ Bℓz,rz(X) | i, j ∈ A}
for all i, j, k ∈ X. It is evident thatB(i,j,k)(X),B
(i)
rb (X),B
(i,j)
ℓz (X),B
(i,j)
rz (X)
are subsemigroups of B(X), Brb(X), Bℓz(X), Brz(X) respectively, and
B
(i)
ℓz,rb(X), B
(i)
rb,rz(X), B
(i,j)
ℓz,rz(X) are subdimonoids of Bℓz,rb(X), Brb,rz(X),
Bℓz,rz(X) respectively.
For all i, j, k ∈ X put
M(i,j,k) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (x, y, z) = (i, j, k)},
M(i,j) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (x, y) = (i, j)},
M(i,j] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (y, z) = (i, j)},
M[i,j] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (x, z) = (i, j)},
M(i) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) |x = i},
A. V. Zhuchok 121
M(i] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | y = i},
M[i] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | z = i};
for all i, j ∈ X, Y ∈ B(X) such that i, j ∈ Y put
MY
(i,j) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | ((x, y), A) = ((i, j), Y )},
MY
(i,j] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | ((y, z), A) = ((i, j), Y )},
MY
[i,j] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | ((x, z), A) = ((i, j), Y )};
for all i ∈ X, Y ∈ B(X) such that i ∈ Y put
MY
(i) = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (x,A) = (i, Y )},
MY
(i] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (y,A) = (i, Y )},
MY
[i] = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) | (z,A) = (i, Y )};
for all Y ∈ B(X) put
MY = {((x, y, z), A) ∈ FND(X) |A = Y }.
The notion of a diband of subdimonoids was introduced in [4] and
investigated in [5] (see also [9]).
Subsequently, we will deal with diband decompositions and band
decompositions of free normal dibands.
The following structure theorem gives decompositions of free normal
dibands into dibands of subsemigroups.
Theorem 3. Let FND(X) be the free normal diband. Then
(i) FND(X) is a rectangular diband FRct(X) of subsemigroups M(i,j,k),
(i, j, k) ∈ FRct(X) such that M(i,j,k)
∼= B(i,j,k)(X) for every (i, j, k) ∈
FRct(X);
(ii) FND(X) is a diband Xℓz,rb of subsemigroups M(i,j), (i, j) ∈ Xℓz,rb
such that M(i,j)
∼= B
(i,j)
rz (X) for every (i, j) ∈ Xℓz,rb;
(iii) FND(X) is a diband Xrb,rz of subsemigroups M(i,j], (i, j) ∈
Xrb,rz such that M(i,j]
∼= B
(i,j)
ℓz (X) for every (i, j) ∈ Xrb,rz;
(iv) FND(X) is a left and right diband Xℓz,rz of subsemigroups
M(i], i ∈ Xℓz,rz such that M(i]
∼= B
(i)
rb (X) for every i ∈ Xℓz,rz;
(v) FND(X) is a diband Bℓz,rb(X) of subsemigroups MY
(i,j), ((i, j), Y )∈
Bℓz,rb(X) such that MY
(i,j)
∼= Yrz for every ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Bℓz,rb(X);
(vi) FND(X) is a diband Brb,rz(X) of subsemigroups MY
(i,j], ((i, j), Y )∈
Brb,rz(X) such that MY
(i,j]
∼= Yℓz for every ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Brb,rz(X);
(vii) FND(X) is a diband Bℓz,rz(X) of subsemigroups MY
(i], (i, Y )∈
Bℓz,rz(X) such that MY
(i]
∼= Yrb for every (i, Y ) ∈ Bℓz,rz(X).
122 Free normal dibands
Proof. (i) By Theorem 2 the map
µFRct : FND(X)→ FRct(X) :
((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µFRct = (x, y, z)
is a homomorphism. It is clear that M(i,j,k), (i, j, k) ∈ FRct(X) is a
class of ∆µFRct
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). If ((x, y, z), A),
((a, b, c), B) ∈M(i,j,k), then x = a = i, y = b = j, z = c = k and
((x, y, z), A) ⊣ ((a, b, c), B) = ((x, y, c), A ∪B) = ((i, j, k), A ∪B),
((x, y, z), A) ⊢ ((a, b, c), B) = ((x, b, c), A ∪B) = ((i, j, k), A ∪B).
Hence the operations of M(i,j,k) coincide and so, it is a semigroup. It is
not difficult to show that for every (i, j, k) ∈ FRct(X) the map
M(i,j,k) → B(i,j,k)(X) : ((i, j, k), A) 7→ A
is an isomorphism.
(ii) By Theorem 2 the map
µℓz,rb : FND(X)→ Xℓz,rb : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µℓz,rb = (x, y)
is a homomorphism. It is evident that M(i,j), (i, j) ∈ Xℓz,rb is a class of
∆µℓz,rb
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). If ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈
M(i,j), then x = a = i, y = b = j. Similarly to (i), the operations of M(i,j)
coincide and so, it is a semigroup. It is easy to check that for every
(i, j) ∈ Xℓz,rb the map
M(i,j) → B(i,j)
rz (X) : ((i, j, z), A) 7→ (z,A)
is an isomorphism.
(iii) By Theorem 2 the map
µrb,rz : FND(X)→ Xrb,rz : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µrb,rz = (y, z)
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (ii), M(i,j], (i, j) ∈ Xrb,rz is a class of
∆µrb,rz
which is a semigroup isomorphic to B
(i,j)
ℓz (X).
(iv) By Theorem 2 the map
µℓz,rz : FND(X)→ Xℓz,rz : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µℓz,rz = y
is a homomorphism. Then M(i], i ∈ Xℓz,rz is a class of ∆µℓz,rz
which
is a subdimonoid of FND(X). If ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈M(i], then
A. V. Zhuchok 123
y = b = i. Similarly to (i), the operations of M(i] coincide and so, it is a
semigroup. It is easily seen that for every i ∈ Xℓz,rz the map
M(i] → B
(i)
rb (X) : ((x, i, z), A) 7→ ((x, z), A)
is an isomorphism.
(v) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
ℓz,rb : FND(X)→ Bℓz,rb(X) :
((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
ℓz,rb = ((x, y), A)
is a homomorphism. Then MY
(i,j), ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Bℓz,rb(X) is a class of ∆µ∗
ℓz,rb
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). If ((x, y, z), A), ((a, b, c), B) ∈MY
(i,j),
then x = a = i, y = b = j, A = B = Y . Similarly to (i), the operations of
MY
(i,j) coincide and so, it is a semigroup. It is immediate to check that for
every ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Bℓz,rb(X) the map
MY
(i,j) → Yrz : ((i, j, z), Y ) 7→ z
is an isomorphism.
(vi) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
rb,rz : FND(X)→ Brb,rz(X) :
((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
rb,rz = ((y, z), A)
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (v), MY
(i,j], ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Brb,rz(X) is a
class of ∆µ∗
rb,rz
which is a semigroup isomorphic to Yℓz.
(vii) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
ℓz,rz : FND(X)→ Bℓz,rz(X) :
((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
ℓz,rz = (y,A)
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (iv), MY
(i], (i, Y ) ∈ Bℓz,rz(X) is a class
of ∆µ∗
ℓz,rz
which is a semigroup isomorphic to Yrb.
If ρ is a congruence on a dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) such that (D,⊣,⊢)/ρ
is a (ℓn, n)-diband (respectively, (n, rn)-diband, (ℓn, rn)-diband), then
we say that ρ is a (ℓn, n)-congruence (respectively, (n, rn)-congruence,
(ℓn, rn)-congruence).
Using the terminology of [9], from Theorem 3 we obtain
124 Free normal dibands
Corollary 1. Let FND(X) be the free normal diband. Then
(i) ∆µFRct
is the least rectangular diband congruence on FND(X);
(ii) ∆µℓz,rb

(iii) ∆µrb,rz
is the least (rb, rz)-congruence on FND(X);
(iv) ∆µℓz,rz
is the least left zero and right zero congruence on FND(X);
(v) ∆µ∗
ℓz,rb
is the least (ℓn, n)-congruence on FND(X);
(vi) ∆µ∗
rb,rz
is the least (n, rn)-congruence on FND(X);
(vii) ∆µ∗
ℓz,rz
is the least (ℓn, rn)-congruence on FND(X).
Proof. (i) By Theorem 1 FRct(X) is the free rectangular dimonoid. Ac-
cording to Theorem 3 (i) we obtain (i).
(ii) By Lemma 7 from [9] Xℓz,rb is the free (ℓz, rb)-dimonoid. According
to Theorem 3 (ii) we obtain (ii).
The proof of (iii) is similar.
(iv) By Lemma 5 from [9] Xℓz,rz is the free left zero and right zero
dimonoid. According to Theorem 3 (iv) we obtain (iv).
(v) By Lemma 6 Bℓz,rb(X) is the free (ℓn, n)-diband. According to
Theorem 3 (v) we obtain (v).
The proof of (vi) is similar.
(vii) By Lemma 8 Bℓz,rz(X) is the free (ℓn, rn)-diband. According to
Theorem 3 (vii) we obtain (vii).
The following structure theorem gives decompositions of free normal
dibands into bands of subdimonoids.
Theorem 4. Let FND(X) be the free normal diband. Then
(i) FND(X) is a rectangular band Xrb of subdimonoids M[i,j], (i, j) ∈
Xrb such that M[i,j]
∼= B
(i,j)
ℓz,rz(X) for every (i, j) ∈ Xrb;
(ii) FND(X) is a left band Xℓz of subdimonoids M(i), i ∈ Xℓz such
that M(i)
∼= B
(i)
rb,rz(X) for every i ∈ Xℓz;
(iii) FND(X) is a right band Xrz of subdimonoids M[i], i ∈ Xrz such
that M[i]
∼= B
(i)
ℓz,rb(X) for every i ∈ Xrz;
(iv) FND(X) is a normal band Brb(X) of subdimonoids MY
[i,j], ((i, j), Y ) ∈
Brb(X) such that MY
[i,j]
∼= Yℓz,rz for every ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Brb(X);
(v) FND(X) is a left normal band Bℓz(X) of subdimonoids MY
(i),
(i, Y )∈ Bℓz(X) such that MY
(i)
∼= Yrb,rz for every (i, Y ) ∈ Bℓz(X);
(vi) FND(X) is a right normal band Brz(X) of subdimonoids MY
[i],
(i, Y )∈ Brz(X) such that MY
[i]
∼= Yℓz,rb for every (i, Y ) ∈ Brz(X);
(vii) FND(X) is a semilattice B(X) of subdimonoids MY , Y ∈ B(X)
such that MY ∼= FRct(Y ) for every Y ∈ B(X).
A. V. Zhuchok 125
Proof. (i) By Theorem 2 the map
µrb : FND(X)→ Xrb : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µrb = (x, z)
is a homomorphism. It is clear that M[i,j], (i, j) ∈ Xrb is a class of ∆µrb
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). It can be shown that for every
(i, j) ∈ Xrb the map
M[i,j] → B
(i,j)
ℓz,rz(X) : ((i, y, j), A) 7→ (y,A)
is an isomorphism.
(ii) By Theorem 2 the map
µℓz : FND(X)→ Xℓz : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µℓz = x
is a homomorphism. It is evident that M(i), i ∈ Xℓz is a class of ∆µℓz
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). It is easy to check that for every
i ∈ Xℓz the map
M(i) → B
(i)
rb,rz(X) : ((i, y, z), A) 7→ ((y, z), A)
is an isomorphism.
(iii) By Theorem 2 the map
µrz : FND(X)→ Xrz : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µrz = z
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (ii), M[i], i ∈ Xrz is a class of ∆µrz which
is a dimonoid isomorphic to B
(i)
ℓz,rb(X).
(iv) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
rb : FND(X)→ Brb(X) : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
rb = ((x, z), A)
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (i), MY
[i,j], ((i, j), Y ) ∈ Brb(X) is a class
of ∆µ∗
rb
which is a dimonoid isomorphic to Yℓz,rz.
(v) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
ℓz : FND(X)→ Bℓz(X) : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
ℓz = (x,A)
is a homomorphism. It is clear that MY
(i), (i, Y ) ∈ Bℓz(X) is a class of
∆µ∗
ℓz
which is a subdimonoid of FND(X). It can be shown that for every
(i, Y ) ∈ Bℓz(X) the map
MY
(i) → Yrb,rz : ((i, y, z), Y ) 7→ (y, z)
is an isomorphism.
126 Free normal dibands
(vi) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗
rz : FND(X)→ Brz(X) : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗
rz = (z,A)
is a homomorphism. Similarly to (v), MY
[i], (i, Y ) ∈ Brz(X) is a class of
∆µ∗
rz
which is a dimonoid isomorphic to Yℓz,rb.
(vii) By Theorem 2 the map
µ∗ : FND(X)→ B(X) : ((x, y, z), A) 7→ ((x, y, z), A)µ∗ = A
is a homomorphism. Clearly, MY , Y ∈ B(X) is a class of ∆µ∗ which is a
subdimonoid of FND(X). One can show that for every Y ∈ B(X) the
map
MY → FRct(Y ) : ((x, y, z), Y ) 7→ (x, y, z)
is an isomorphism.
If ρ is a congruence on a dimonoid (D,⊣,⊢) such that the operations
of (D,⊣,⊢)/ρ coincide and it is a (left, right) normal band, then we say
that ρ is a (left, right) normal band congruence.
Using the terminology of [9], from Theorem 4 we obtain
Corollary 2. Let FND(X) be the free normal diband. Then
(i) ∆µrb
is the least rectangular band congruence on FND(X);
(ii) ∆µℓz
is the least left zero congruence on FND(X);
(iii) ∆µrz is the least right zero congruence on FND(X);
(iv) ∆µ∗
rb
is the least normal band congruence on FND(X);
(v) ∆µ∗
ℓz
is the least left normal band congruence on FND(X);
(vi) ∆µ∗
rz
is the least right normal band congruence on FND(X);
(vii) ∆µ∗ is the least semilattice congruence on FND(X).
Proof. (i) Xrb is the free rectangular band (see Sect. 3 of [9]). By Theorem
4 (i) we obtain (i).
(ii) It is well-known that Xℓz is the free left zero semigroup. By
Theorem 4 (ii) we obtain (ii).
The proof of (iii) is similar.
(iv) Brb(X) is the free normal band (see Sect. 3). By Theorem 4 (iv)
we obtain (iv).
(v) Bℓz(X) is the free left normal band (see Sect. 3). By Theorem 4
(v) we obtain (v).
The proof of (vi) is similar.
(vii) It is well-known that B(X) is the free semilattice. By Theorem 4
(vii) we obtain (vii).
