Regular algebraic monoids

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to provide a proper identification of normal irreducible, regular algebraic monoids. The results from the work of Renner [3,4] suggest that we should be able to find a classification of  these monoids in terms of their unit groups, and related toroidal data. That is what we accomplish here.
