Abstract

For any n<ωn<\omega we construct an infinite Heyting algebra HnH_n which is (n+1)(n+1)-generated but that contains only finite nn-generated subalgebras. From this we conclude that for every n<ωn<\omega there exists a variety of Heyting algebras which contains an infinite (n+1)(n+1)-generated Heyting algebra, but which contains only finite nn-generated Heyting algebras. For the case n=2n=2 this provides a negative answer to a question posed by G. Bezhanishvili and R. Grigolia in [3].
