For any semigroup S a regular semigroup C(S) that embeds S can be constructed as the direct limit of a sequence of semigroups each of which contains a copy of its predecessor as a subsemigroup whose elements are regular. The construction is modified here to obtain an embedding of S into a regular semigroup R such that the nontrivial maximal subgroups of R are isomorphic to the Schutzenberger groups of S and such that the restriction to S of any of Green's relations on R is the corresponding Green's relation on S.

We consider adequate transversals of abundant semigroups and prove that, in a particular case, there is a natural embedding of an inverse transversal within a certain regular subsemigroup. We also introduce the concepts of simplistic, perfect, and quasi-adequate transversal and provide a number of interesting connections between these. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
