Summary:
We characterize totally ordered sets within the class of all ordered sets containing at least three-element chains using a simple relationship between their isotone transformations and the so called 2-, 3-, 4-endomorphisms which are introduced in the paper. Another characterization of totally ordered sets within the class of ordered sets of a locally finite height with at least four-element chains in terms of the regular semigroup theory is also given.
