In this paper we study the classes of superconnected and superfaithful left quasigroups, that are relevant in the study of Mal'cev varieties of left quasigroups \cite{Maltsev_paper}. Then we focus on quandles and in particular to the…
In this paper we investigate the class of semimedial left quasigroups, a class that properly contains racks and medial left quasigroups. We extend most of the results about commutator theory for racks collected in \cite{CP} and some of the…
In this paper we investigate central congruence of left quasigroups in the sense of Freese and McKenzie \cite{comm} and we extend some known results for quandles. In particular, we can extend the characterization of finite nilpotent latin…
Meet semidistributive varieties are in a sense the last of the most important classes in universal algebra for which it is unknown whether it can be characterized by a strong Maltsev condition. We present a new, relatively simple Maltsev…
We give a complete characterization of pseudovarieties of semigroups whose finitely generated relatively free profinite semigroups are equidivisible. Besides the pseudovarieties of completely simple semigroups, they are precisely the…
We derive a Mal'cev condition for congruence meet-semidistributivity and then use it to prove two theorems. Theorem A: if a variety in a finite language is congruence meet-semidistributive and residually less than some finite cardinal, then…
We give a description of finite semigroups $S$ that are minimal for not being Malcev nilpotent, i.e. every proper subsemigroup and every proper Rees factor semigroup is Malcev nilpotent but $S$ is not. For groups this question was…
We establish a characterization of supernilpotent Mal'cev algebras which generalizes the affine structure of abelian Mal'cev algebras and the recent characterization of 3-supernilpotent Mal'cev algebras. We then show that for varieties in…
We study the connection between amenability, F{\o}lner conditions and the geometry of finitely generated semigroups. Using results of Klawe, we show that within an extremely broad class of semigroups (encompassing all groups, left…
We investigate the rank of pseudovarieties defined by several of the variants of nilpotency conditions for semigroups in the sense of Mal'cev. For several of them, we provide finite bases of pseudoidentities. We also show that the…
In 1966, Mal'cev proved that a class $\mathcal{K}$ of first-order structures with a specified signature is a quasivariety if and only if $\mathcal{K}$ contains a unit and is closed under isomorphisms, substructures, and reduced products. In…
We present a proof that there is no single finite package of identities which characterizes the class of congruence meet semidistributive varieties.
We investigate two Galois connection between the congruence lattice and the lattice of subgroups of the displacement group of left quasigroups. Such connections were already studied for racks and quandles. We introduce the class of left…
We prove that a non-affine latin quandle (also known as left distributive quasigroup) of order $2^k$ exists if and only if $k = 6$ or $k \geq 8$. The construction is expressed in terms of central extensions of affine quandles.
Let $Q$ be an inverse semigroup. A subsemigroup $S$ of $Q$ is a left I-order in $Q$ and $Q$ is a semigroup of left I-quotients of $S$ if every element in $Q$ can be written as $a^{-1}b$, where $a, b \in S$ and $a^{-1}$ is the inverse of $a$…
A subsemigroup $S$ of an inverse semigroup $Q$ is a left I-order in $Q$, if every element in $Q$ can be written as $a^{-1}b$ where $a, b \in S$ and $a^{-1}$ is the inverse of $a$ in the sense of inverse semigroup theory. We study a…
We present an overview of the theory of self-distributive quasigroups, both in the two-sided and one-sided cases, and relate the older results to the modern theory of quandles, to which self-distributive quasigroups are a special case. Most…
In this paper we characterize when a Cayley automaton semigroup is a group, is trivial, is finite, is free, is a left zero semigroup, or is a right zero semigroup.
In this paper, we study three classes of subvarieties inside the variety of left-symmetric algebras. We show that these subvarieties are naturally related to some well-known varieties, such as alternative, assosymmetric and Zinbiel…
A subsemigroup $S$ of an inverse semigroup $Q$ is a left I-order in $Q$ if every element in $Q$ can be written as $a^{-1}b$ where $a,b \in S$ and $a^{-1}$ is the inverse of $a$ in the sense of inverse semigroup theory. If we insist on $a$…
