Abstract
It is a classical result from universal algebra that the notions of polymorphisms and invariants provide a Galois connection between suitably closed classes (clones) of finitary operations , and classes (coclones) of relations . We will present a generalization of this duality to classes of (multi-valued, partial) functions , employing invariants valued in partially ordered monoids instead of relations. In particular, our set-up encompasses the case of permutations , motivated by problems in reversible computing.
