Abstract
Lee and Kwon (Sci Math 2:247–251, 1998) defined an ordered semigroup S to be completely regular if \(a \in (a^2Sa^2]\) for every \(a \in S\). We characterize every completely regular ordered semigroup as a union of t-simple subsemigroups, and every Clifford ordered semigroup as a complete semilattice of t-simple subsemigroups. Green’s Theorem for the completely regular ordered semigroups has been established. In an ordered semigroup S, we call an element e an ordered idempotent if it satisfies \(e \le e^2\). Different characterizations of the regular, completely regular and Clifford ordered semigroups are done by their ordered idempotents. Thus a foundation for the completely regular ordered semigroups and Clifford ordered semigroups has been developed.
