Canonical forms for free k-semigroups

The implicit signature kappa consists of the multiplication and the (omega-1)-power. We describe a procedure to transform each kappa-term over a finite alphabet A into a certain canonical form and show that different canonical forms have different interpretations over some finite semigroup. The proc...
