Titre / Title: Strong Morita Equivalence and the Synthesis Theorem
Abstract : In earlier work we associated a natural category to a semigroup and developed Morita theory for semigroups. In particular we gave a generalisation of Rees' theorem which led us to define what we call a Morita semigroup, this is our analogue of a structure matrix semigroup. In this article we formulate a method for extending Morita semigroups by groups. We say that a semigroup is an iterative Morita semigroup if it is obtained by successive applications of forming the Morita semigroup and extensions of it by groups. Relying on our results on equivalence of the fix object categories, we show that every regular unambiguous semigroup is isomorphic to an iterative Morita semigroup of a special form. Our result can be viewed as a co-ordinate free version of the Synthesis theorem.
