Definition
Let $\struct {S, \circ, \preceq}$ and $\struct {T, *, \preccurlyeq}$ be ordered semigroups.
An ordered semigroup isomorphism from $\struct {S, \circ, \preceq}$ to $\struct {T, *, \preccurlyeq}$ is a mapping $\phi: S \to T$ that is both:
- $(1): \quad$ A semigroup isomorphism from the semigroup $\struct {S, \circ}$ to the semigroup $\struct {T, *}$
- $(2): \quad$ An order isomorphism from the ordered set $\struct {S, \preceq}$ to the ordered set $\struct {T, \preccurlyeq}$.

Linguistic Note
The word isomorphism derives from the Greek morphe (μορφή) meaning form or structure, with the prefix iso- meaning equal.
Thus isomorphism means equal structure.
