A characterization of varieties of inverse semigroups.
A duality between -ary varieties and -ary algebraic theories is proved as a direct generalization of the finitary case studied by the first author, F.W. Lawvere and J. Rosick’y. We also prove that for every uncountable cardinal , whenever -small products commute with -colimits in , then must be a -filtered category. We nevertheless introduce the concept of -sifted colimits so that morphisms between -ary varieties (defined to be -ary, regular right adjoints) are precisely the functors...
The Cantor-Bernstein-Schröder theorem of the set theory was generalized by Sikorski and Tarski to -complete boolean algebras, and recently by several authors to other algebraic structures. In this paper we expose an abstract version which is applicable to algebras with an underlying lattice structure and such that the central elements of this lattice determine a direct decomposition of the algebra. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the validity of the Cantor-Bernstein-Schröder theorem for...
