  • Abstract
    We consider the set of equtional classes of finite functions endowed with the operation of class composition. Thus defined, this set gains a semigroup structure. This paper is a contribution to the understanding of this semigroup. We present several interesting properties of this semigroup. In particular, we show that it constitutes a topological semigroup that is profinite.
