Krohn–Rhodes Theory
In mathematics and computer science, the Krohn–Rhodes theory (or algebraic automata theory) is an approach to the study of finite semigroups and automata that seeks to decompose them in terms of elementary components. These components correspond to finite aperiodic semigroups and finite simple groups that are combined in a feedback-free manner (called a "wreath product" or "cascade"). Krohn and Rhodes found a general decomposition for finite automata. In doing their research, though, the authors discovered and proved an unexpected major result in finite semigroup theory, revealing a deep connection between finite automata and semigroups. Definitions and description of the Krohn–Rhodes theorem Let ''T'' be a semigroup. A semigroup ''S'' that is a homomorphic image of a subsemigroup of ''T'' is said to be a divisor of ''T''. The Krohn–Rhodes theorem for finite semigroups states that every finite semigroup ''S'' is a divisor of a finite alternating wreath product of fi ...
