A semigroup is said to be congruence-free if and only if its only congruences are the universal relation and the identical relation. Congruence-free inverse semigroups were studied by Baird [2], Trotter [19], Munn [15,16] and Reilly [18]. In addition, results on congruence-free regular semigroups have been obtained by Trotter [20], Hall [4] and Howie [7].
