Abstract
The word problem for free bands (idempotent semigroups) was solved by Green and Rees [4] in an early paper. They also established certain properties of the free band. This was followed by McLean [6] who provided a general structure theory for bands with some indication as to the structure of the free band. Since then a great many papers have appeared dealing with various aspects of the topic of bands and their varieties. A different solution of the word problem for free bands was recently given by Siekmann and Szabó [9]. For a discussion of bands, see the books [5] and [8].
