If h is a homomorphism of an N-semigroup onto an N-semigroup S′, then h induces a homomorphism h of the translation semigroup Λ(S) of S into Λ(S′) of S′. We will study the relations between the structures of S, S′ and Λ(S), Λ(S)′, and will introduce the specialized concepts of N-semigroups S. In particular, we will be interested in power-joined steady or endless N-semigroups. Finally, we will consider admissibility of torsion abelian groups, that is, consider what torsion abelian group can be a structure group of a power-joined steady N-semigroup.
