In an earlier paper [1] on groups which are the products of two finite cyclic groups with trivial intersection, certain permutations, called “semi-special”, played a certain role. The permutation π of the numbers 1, 2,…, n is semi-special if† πn=n, and if, for every y ε [n],

is again a permutation, namely a power (depending on y) of π.
