On the lattice of varieties of completely simple semigroups.
We prove that every clone of operations on a finite set , if it contains a Malcev operation, is finitely related – i.e., identical with the clone of all operations respecting for some finitary relation over . It follows that for a fixed finite set , the set of all such Malcev clones is countable. This completes the solution of a problem that was first formulated in 1980, or earlier: how many Malcev clones can finite sets support? More generally, we prove that every finite algebra with few...
For a class of hypersubstitutions 𝓚, we define the 𝓚-solidity of general varieties of tree languages (GVTLs) that contain tree languages over all alphabets, general varieties of finite algebras (GVFAs), and general varieties of finite congruences (GVFCs). We show that if 𝓚 is a so-called category of substitutions, a GVTL is 𝓚-solid exactly in case the corresponding GVFA, or the corresponding GVFC, is 𝓚-solid. We establish the solidity status of several known GVTLs with respect to certain categories...
A category is called -determined if every set of non-isomorphic -objects such that their endomorphism monoids are isomorphic has a cardinality less than . A quasivariety is called -universal if the lattice of all subquasivarieties of any quasivariety of finite type is a homomorphic image of a sublattice of the lattice of all subquasivarieties of . We say that a variety is var-relatively alg-universal if there exists a proper subvariety of such that homomorphisms of whose image does...
