Algebraic maximal semilattices

James Wilson Stepp

Vol. 58 (1975), No. 1, 243–248
Abstract

A topological semigroup S is maximal if it is closed in each topological semigroup that contains it. The semigroup S is called absolutely maximal if each continuous image is maximal. In this paper we are concerned with those discrete semilattices that are absolutely maximal. Thus we are concerned with those algebraic conditions on a semilattice which force it to be topologically closed.
