The lattice of equational theories. Part I: Modular elements
Let τ: F → N be a type of algebras, where F is a set of fundamental operation symbols and N is the set of all positive integers. An identity φ ≈ ψ is called biregular if it has the same variables in each of it sides and it has the same fundamental operation symbols in each of it sides. For a variety V of type τ we denote by the biregularization of V, i.e. the variety of type τ defined by all biregular identities from Id(V). Let B be the variety of Boolean algebras of type , where and . In...
The class of all fibered automata is a variety of two-sorted algebras. This paper provides a full description of the lattice of varieties of fibred automata.
In [2] it was proved that all hypersubstitutions of type τ = (2) which are not idempotent and are different from the hypersubstitution whichmaps the binary operation symbol f to the binary term f(y,x) haveinfinite order. In this paper we consider the order of hypersubstitutionswithin given varieties of semigroups. For the theory of hypersubstitution see [3].
By a commutative term we mean an element of the free commutative groupoid of infinite rank. For two commutative terms , write if contains a subterm that is a substitution instance of . With respect to this relation, is a quasiordered set which becomes an ordered set after the appropriate factorization. We study definability in this ordered set. Among other things, we prove that every commutative term (or its block in the factor) is a definable element. Consequently, the ordered set has...
In this paper it is proved that there does not exist a function for the language of positive and generalized conditional terms that behaves the same as the discriminator for the language of conditional terms.
A hypersubstitution of a fixed type τ maps n-ary operation symbols of the type to n-ary terms of the type. Such a mapping induces a unique mapping defined on the set of all terms of type t. The kernel of this induced mapping is called the kernel of the hypersubstitution, and it is a fully invariant congruence relation on the (absolutely free) term algebra of the considered type ([2]). If V is a variety of type τ, we consider the composition of the natural homomorphism with the mapping induced...
