of semi-groups with zero

The semi-group obtained from the given family of semi-groups with zero, pairwise intersecting at this zero, by specifying on the multiplication operation that coincides with the original operation on each semi-group and is such that for different . The -direct union is also called the orthogonal sum. A number of types of semi-groups can be described by decomposing them in an -direct union of known semi-groups (cf., e.g., Maximal ideal; Minimal ideal; Regular semi-group).
