There is a large body of literature on inverse semigroups. This literature contains a considerable amount of information concerning congruences on these semigroups, which is not surprising in view of the demonstrated fact that congruences on inverse semigroups play a decisive role in most of the existing structure theorems. In addition, for an inverse semigroup of known structure, finding its congruence lattice, or even certain properties of this lattice, often gives information about these semigroups not apparent in their structure theorems.
