Abstract:
The main results of the paper are the following. The ordered semigroups which have the
$P$-property are decomposable into archimedean semigroups. Moreover, the ordered semigroups which have the
$P$-property are decomposable into semigroups having the
$P$-property. Conversely, if an ordered semigroup
$S$ is a complete semilattice of semigroups which have the
$P$-property, then
$S$ itself has the
$P$-property as well. An ordered semigroup is
$CS$-indecomposable and has the
$P$-property if and only if it is archimedean. If
$S$ is an ordered semigroup, then the relation
$N:=\{(a,b)\mid N(a)=N(b)\}$ (where
$N(a)$ is the filter of
$S$ generated by
$a$ $(a\in S)$) is the least complete semilattice congruence on
$S$ and the class
$(a)_{N}$ is
$CS$-indecomposable subsemigroup of
$S$ for every
$a\in S$. The concept of the
$P_m$-property is introduced and a characterization of the
$P_m$-property in terms of the
$P$-property is given. Our methodology simplifies the proofs of the corresponding results of semigroups (without order)
