Symmetric inverse semigroup

Summary

In abstract algebra, the set of all partial bijections on a set X ( one-to-one partial transformations) forms an inverse semigroup, called the symmetric inverse semigroup (actually a monoid) on X. The conventional notation for the symmetric inverse semigroup on a set X is ℐX\mathcal{I}_X or ℐ𝒮X\mathcal{IS}_X. In general ℐX\mathcal{I}_X is not commutative.
