Abstract

Hedrlín and Pultr proved that for any monoid M there exists a graph G with endomorphism monoid isomorphic to M. We will give a construction G(M) for a graph with prescribed endomorphism monoid M. Using this construction we derive bounds on the minimum number of vertices and edges required to produce a graph with a given endomorphism monoid for various classes of finite monoids. We state bounds for the class of all monoids as well as for certain subclasses - groups, k-cancellative monoids, commutative 3-nilpotent monoids, rectangular groups, completely simple monoids, a variety of strong semillatices and others.
