Abstract:Research on combinatorial properties of sequences in groups and semigroups originates from Bernhard Neumann's theorem answering a question of Paul Erd\"{o}s. For results on related combinatorial properties of sequences in semigroups we refer to the book [3]. In 2000 the authors introduced a new combinatorial property and described all groups satisfying it. The present paper extends this result to all semigroups.
Keywords: sequences, power graphs, semigroups
