Clones on regular cardinals

Martin Goldstern, Saharon Shelah (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We investigate the structure of the lattice of clones on an infinite set X. We first observe that ultrafilters naturally induce clones; this yields a simple proof of Rosenberg’s theorem: there are 2 2 λ maximal (= “precomplete”) clones on a set of size λ. The clones we construct do not contain all unary functions. We then investigate clones that do contain all unary functions. Using a strong negative partition theorem from pcf theory we show that for cardinals λ (in particular, for all successors of...

Commutation of operations and its relationship with Menger and Mann superpositions

Fedir M. Sokhatsky (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

The article considers a problem from Trokhimenko paper [13] concerning the study of abstract properties of commutations of operations and their connection with the Menger and Mann superpositions. Namely, abstract characterizations of some classes of operation algebras, whose signature consists of arbitrary families of commutations of operations, Menger and Mann superpositions and their various connections are found. Some unsolved problems are given at the end of the article.

Commutative zeropotent semigroups with few invariant congruences

Robert El Bashir, Tomáš Kepka (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Commutative semigroups satisfying the equation 2 x + y = 2 x and having only two G -invariant congruences for an automorphism group G are considered. Some classes of these semigroups are characterized and some other examples are constructed.
