A subsemigroup is a nonempty subset of a semigroup closed under its associative operation. In a compact Hausdorff space carrying a left-topological semigroup, descending chains of nonempty compact subsemigroups have a nonempty compact subsemigroup as their intersection. This supplies the minimal object used in the Ellis–Numakura lemma.
