The Existence of Irr(X)

Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1970
If X is a compact totally ordered space, we obtain the existence of an irreducible semigroup with idempotents X, Irr(X), with the property that any irreducible semigroup with idempotents X is the idempotent separating surmorphic image of Irr(X).
