Inverse semigroups with idempotent-fixing automorphisms
A celebrated result of J. Thompson says that if a finite group G has a fixedpoint-free automorphism of prime order, then G is nilpotent. The main purpose of this note is to extend this result to finite inverse semigroups. An earlier related result of B. H. Neumann says that a uniquely 2-divisible gr...
