Equational spectrum of Hilbert varieties

R. Padmanabhan, Sergiu Rudeanu (2009)

Open Mathematics

We prove that an equational class of Hilbert algebras cannot be defined by a single equation. In particular Hilbert algebras and implication algebras are not one-based. Also, we use a seminal theorem of Alfred Tarski in equational logic to characterize the set of cardinalities of all finite irredundant bases of the varieties of Hilbert algebras, implication algebras and commutative BCK algebras: all these varieties can be defined by independent bases of n elements, for each n > 1.

Equimorphy in varieties of distributive double p -algebras

Václav Koubek, Jiří Sichler (1998)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Any finitely generated regular variety 𝕍 of distributive double p -algebras is finitely determined, meaning that for some finite cardinal n ( 𝕍 ) , any subclass S 𝕍 of algebras with isomorphic endomorphism monoids has fewer than n ( 𝕍 ) pairwise non-isomorphic members. This result follows from our structural characterization of those finitely generated almost regular varieties which are finitely determined. We conjecture that any finitely generated, finitely determined variety of distributive double p -algebras...

Finite atomistic lattices that can be represented as lattices of quasivarieties

K. Adaricheva, Wiesław Dziobiak, V. Gorbunov (1993)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We prove that a finite atomistic lattice can be represented as a lattice of quasivarieties if and only if it is isomorphic to the lattice of all subsemilattices of a finite semilattice. This settles a conjecture that appeared in the context of [11].

Finite basis problem for 2-testable monoids

Edmond Lee (2011)

Open Mathematics

A monoid S 1 obtained by adjoining a unit element to a 2-testable semigroup S is said to be 2-testable. It is shown that a 2-testable monoid S 1 is either inherently non-finitely based or hereditarily finitely based, depending on whether or not the variety generated by the semigroup S contains the Brandt semigroup of order five. Consequently, it is decidable in quadratic time if a finite 2-testable monoid is finitely based.

Finitely generated almost universal varieties of 0 -lattices

Václav Koubek, Jiří Sichler (2005)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A concrete category 𝕂 is (algebraically) universal if any category of algebras has a full embedding into 𝕂 , and 𝕂 is almost universal if there is a class 𝒞 of 𝕂 -objects such that all non-constant homomorphisms between them form a universal category. The main result of this paper fully characterizes the finitely generated varieties of 0 -lattices which are almost universal.
