Kernel of a semi-group
From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
The smallest two-sided ideal in the semi-group. Not every semi-group has a kernel.
Regarding properties of kernels of semi-groups and semi-groups that have kernels, see Minimal ideal; Archimedean semi-group; Wreath product of semi-groups; and Topological semi-group.
