Apr 25, 2020 at 1:37 | comment | added | LSpice | @RichardStanley, could it be a difference of terminology (like which ones are right cosets, where one has to decide whether the representative or the group action is on the right)? I'd call a right identity of $R$ an element $i$ that satisfies $x i = x$ for all $x \in R$, in which sense it seems that $a$ and $b$ are both right identities here. | |
