Is there any classification of countably infinite monoids with minimal right ideal? or at least in some classes of monoids?

  • $\begingroup$ What would you hope to mean by a classifications? You can take any countable monoid and adjoin a zero to get a minimal right ideal. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 13, 2022 at 13:01

    $\begingroup$ And all finite or compact monoids have minimal right ideals. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 13, 2022 at 13:01
  • $\begingroup$ @Benjamin Steinberg Thanks for the guidance! For example, all commutative artinian monoids have this property. I want to know the other classes of monoids with this property and you kindly introduced me two new families. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Asking for classes with this property is more hopeful than asking for a classification. Any monoid with descending chain condition on right ideals (e.g. finite monoids) has it, but there are many other ways to get them like artificially adding a 0. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 13, 2022 at 17:30

    $\begingroup$ I think you can find some stuff on this in Clifford and Preston's classic book on semigroup theory. They call it the minimum condition on right ideals. $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 13, 2022 at 19:10
