An inverse semigroup is called E-unitary if the equations ea = e = e2 together imply a2 = a. In a previous paper [4], the author showed that any E-unitary inverse semigroup is isomorphic to a semigroup constructed from a triple (G, ℋ, ) consisting of a down-directed partially ordered set ℋ, an ideal and subsemilattice of ℋ and a group G acting on ℋ, on the left, by order automorphisms in such a way that ℋ = G. This semigroup is denoted by P(G, ℋ, ); it consists of all pairs (a, g)∈ × G such that g−1a, under the multiplication
