Left cancellative semigroups
Abbreviation: CanSgrp
Definition
A \emph{left cancellative semigroup} is a semigroup $\mathbf{S}=\langle S,\cdot \rangle $ such that
$\cdot $ is left cancellative: $z\cdot x=z\cdot y\Longrightarrow x=y$
Morphisms
Let $\mathbf{S}$ and $\mathbf{T}$ be left cancellative semigroups. A morphism from $\mathbf{S}$ to $\mathbf{T}$ is a function $h:S\rightarrow T$ that is a homomorphism:
$h(xy)=h(x)h(y)$
Examples
Example 1: $\langle \mathbb{N},+\rangle $, the natural numbers, with additition.
