In this paper, we introduce and investigate monadic NM-algebras: a variety of NM-algebras equipped with universal quantifiers. Also, we obtain some conditions under which monadic NM-algebras become monadic Boolean algebras. Besides, we show…
Universal algebra uniformly captures various algebraic structures, by expressing them as equational theories or abstract clones. The ubiquity of algebraic structures in mathematics and related fields has given rise to several variants of…
We develop a new general framework for algebras and clones, called Universal Clone Algebra. Algebras and clones of finitary operations are to Universal Algebra what t-algebras and clone algebras are to Universal Clone Algebra. Clone…
We provide a new foundational approach to the generalization of terms up to equational theories. We interpret generalization problems in a universal-algebraic setting making a key use of projective and exact algebras in the variety…
Algebraic logic studies algebraic theories related to proposition and first-order logic. A new algebraic approach to first-order logic is sketched in this paper. We introduce the notion of a quantifier theory, which is a functor from the…
We define an easily verifiable notion of an atomic formula having uniformly bounded arrays in a structure $M$. We prove that if $T$ is a complete $L$-theory, then $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if there is some model $M$ of $T$ for…
We intend to investigate the metalogical property of 'omitting types' for a wide variety of quantifier logics (that can also be seen as multimodal logics upon identifying existential quantifiers with modalities syntactically and…
The unification problem in a normal modal logic is to determine, given a formula F, whether there exists a substitution s such that s(F) is in that logic. In that case, s is a unifier of F. We shall say that a set of unifiers of a unifiable…

Metric Temporal Logic (MTL) is a generalisation of Linear Temporal Logic in which the Until and Since modalities are annotated with intervals that express metric constraints. A seminal result of Hirshfeld and Rabinovich shows that over the…
Taking inspiration from the monadicity of complete atomic Boolean algebras, we prove that profinite modal algebras are monadic over Set. While analyzing the monadic functor, we recover the universal model construction - a construction…
The paper is essentially a continuation of B.Plotkin, G.Zhitomirski, "Some logical invariants of algebras and logical relations between algebras", St.Peterburg Math. J., {19:5}, (2008) 859 -- 879, whose main notion is that of…
In this work we study the notions of structural and universal completeness both from the algebraic and logical point of view. In particular, we provide new algebraic characterizations of quasivarieties that are actively and passively…
Here we initiate an investigation into the class mLMn{\times}m of monadic n{\times}m-valued Lukasiewicz-Moisil algebras (or mLMn{\times}m-algebras), namely n{\times}m-valued Lukasiewicz-Moisil algebras endowed with a unary operation called…
In this paper, first-order logic is interpreted in the framework of universal algebra, using the clone theory developed in three previous papers. We first define the free clone T(L, C) of terms of a first order language L over a set C of…
In this paper, we apply the techniques developed in [5] to present several consequences of studying UMP algebras and the ramifications graph of a monomial bound quiver algebra. Specifically, we prove that every weakly connected component of…
We develop universal algebra over an enriched category $\mathcal K$ and relate it to finitary enriched monads over $\mathcal K$. Using it, we deduce recent results about ordered universal algebra where inequations are used instead of…
Following the classical approach of Birkhoff, we suggest an enriched version of enriched universal algebra. Given a suitable base of enrichment $\mathcal V$, we define a language $\mathbb L$ to be a collection of $(X,Y)$-ary function…
Algebraic theories, sometimes called equational theories, are syntactic notions given by finitary operations and equations, such as monoids, groups, and rings. There is a well-known category-theoretic treatment of them that algebraic…
The aim of this paper is to show that even if the natural algebraic semantic for modal (normal) logic is modal algebra, the more general class of subordination algebras (roughly speaking, the non symmetric contact algebras) is adequate too…
