In mathematics, the idea of inverse element generalises the concepts of negation, in relation to addition, and reciprocal, in relation to multiplication.
If e is an identity element of (S, *) and a * b = e, then a is called a left inverse of b and b is called a right inverse of a.
If an element x is both a left inverse and a right inverse of y, then x is called a two-sided inverse, or simply an inverse, of y.

Identity element: There is an element e in G such that for all a in G, e * a = a = a * e.
Inverse element: For all a in G, there is an element b in G such that a * b = e = b * a, where e is the identity element from the previous axiom.
You can perform division in groups; that is, given elements a and b of the group G, there is exactly one solution x in G to the equation x * a = b and exactly one solution y in G to the equation a * y = b.

In mathematics, the inverse limit (also called the projective limit) is a construction which allows one to "glue together" several related objects, the precise matter of the gluing process being specified by morphisms between the objects.
An inverse multiplexor differs from a demultiplexer in that each of the low rate links coming from it is related to the other ones and they all work together to carry the same data.
Inverse muxes are used, for example, to combine a number of ISDN channels together into one high rate circuit, where the DTE needs a higher rate connection than is available from a single ISDN connection.

Given any number of macroblock processing elements, the overall decoding speed within a multiprocessing decoder system would thereby typically be constrained by the speed of the processor utilized for sequential processing, and reducing the workload of the sequential processor would be a paramount consideration.
Decoder 150 is configured, however, to additionally postpone the execution of both inverse AC prediction 126 and inverse DC prediction 128, so as to allow shifting the computational burden from the sequential, data dependent, processing element 152, to the data independent multiple processing elements, such as 154, 156, 158, 160.

Incidentally, your subject line suggests that you are confusing the concept of inverse in a semigroup with that of an inverse operation, such as the logarithm.
You are evidently looking for an explanation of inverse functions (and the logarithm in particular) in terms of inverse elements of a semigroup.
I was curious why exponentiation and logarithm didn't seem to fit the general definition of inverses for semigroups, which you cleared up for me. I didn't know about some of the interplay between multiplicative inverses in the exponents and the operations of logarithm and exponentiation that you pointed out.

 ABSTRACT ALGEBRA: OnLine Study Guide, Section 3.1
Loosely, a group is a set on which it is possible to define a binary operation that is associative, has an identity element, and has inverses for each of its elements.
This still works for the operation in a group, since if x and y are elements of a group G, and x = y, then a ·: x = a · y, for any element a in G. This is a part of the guarantee that comes with the definition of a binary operation.
The previous exercise shows that in the definition of a group it is sufficient to require the existence of a left identity element and the existence of left inverses.

Note that, for example, the act of adding an element to an inverse set may cause it to mutate, in that the "owner-field" may be updated with a new value.
The act of adding a value to an inverse map may cause it to mutate; in the case of maps, either or both of the "owner-field" and the "key-field" of the value object may be updated.
