It is well-known [16] that the semigroup \(\mathcal{T}_n\) of all total transformations of a given \(n\)-element set \(X_n\) is covered by its inverse subsemigroups. This note provides a short and direct proof, based on properties of digraphs of transformations, that every inverse subsemigroup of or...
