Functional representation of substitution algebras

Logic 2015-03-05 v1

Abstract

We show that the class of representable substitution algebras is characterized by a set of universal first order sentences. In addition, it is shown that a necessary and sufficient condition for a substitution algebra to be representable is that it is embeddable in a substitution algebra in which elements are distinguished. Furthermore, conditions in terms of neat embeddings are shown to be equivalent to representability.
