Congruences on bicyclic extensions of a linearly ordered group

In the paper we study inverse semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$ which are generated by partial monotone injective translations of a positive cone of a linearly ordered group $G$. We describe Green's relations on the semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$, their bands and show that they are simple, and moreover the semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$ and $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$ are bisimple. We show that for a commutative linearly ordered group $G$ all non-trivial congruences on the semigroup $\mathscr{B}(G)$ (and $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$) are group congruences if and only if the group $G$ is archimedean. Also we describe the structure of group congruences on the semigroups $\mathscr{B}(G)$, $\mathscr{B}^+(G)$, $\bar{\mathscr{B}}(G)$ and $\bar{\mathscr{B}}\,^+(G)$.
