This journal serves as a platform for the speedy and efficient transmission of information on current research in semigroup theory. Coverage in the journal includes: algebraic semigroups, topological semigroups, partially ordered semigroups, semigroups of measures and harmonic analysis on semigroups, transformation semigroups, semigroups of operators, and applications of semigroup theory to other disciplines such as ring theory, category theory, automata, and logic.Semigroup Forum features survey and research articles. It also contains research announcements, which describe new results, mostly without proofs, of full length papers appearing elsewhere as well as short notes, which detail such information as new proofs, significant generalizations of known facts, comments on unsolved problems, and historical remarks. In addition, the journal contains research problems; announcements of conferences, seminars, and symposia on semigroup theory; abstracts and bibliographical items; as well as listings of books, papers, and lecture notes of interest.

該期刊作為一個平臺，用于快速有效地傳遞有關半群理論當前研究的信息。該期刊的覆蓋范圍包括：代數半群，拓撲半群，部分有序半群，半群的度量和半群的調和分析，變換半群，算子的半群，以及半群理論應用于其他學科，如環理論，范疇論，自動機，和邏輯。Semigroup FORUM提供調查和研究文章。它還包含研究公告，描述新結果（大多沒有證據），出現在其他地方的全長論文以及簡短筆記，其中詳細說明了諸如新證據，已知事實的重要概括，未解決問題的評論和歷史評論等信息。此外，期刊還包含研究問題;關于半群理論的會議，研討會和專題討論會的公告;摘要和書目項目;以及感興趣的書籍，論文和講義的列表。
