I've an implementation of this whic is unfortunately not already in Sage but is in Sage-Combinat [1] patches [2]. With Nicolas Thiery we are currently working of representation theory of monoid and we have some code to play with finite semigroups including some generic algorithm for j-trivial r-trivial semigroups. There is also a link to Jean-Eric Pin Semigroupe package [3] > Is there any support for such things already included in SAGE or do I > need to develop a new class for such semigroups - any ideas where such > class should be fit into the existing hierarchy of SAGE classes > (inheritance etc.)? Yes with the category system. We have a lot more category for semigroup in the Sage-combinat queue. I'n not sure what is the status of it for being ready to enter Sage. we probably need to entange research code with stable stuff.
