We investigate the complexity of the lattice of local clones over a countably infinite base set. In particular, we prove that this lattice contains all algebraic lattices with at most countably many compact elements as complete sublattices,…
We study functional clones, which are sets of non-negative pseudo-Boolean functions (functions $\{0,1\}^k\to\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$) closed under (essentially) multiplication, summation and limits. Functional clones naturally form a lattice…
We construct a theory of holant clones to capture the notion of expressibility in the holant framework. Their role is analogous to the role played by functional clones in the study of weighted counting Constraint Satisfaction Problems. We…
Extending Sparks's theorem, we determine the cardinality of the lattice of $(C_1,C_2)$-clonoids of Boolean functions for certain pairs $(C_1,C_2)$ of clones of Boolean functions. Namely, when $C_1$ is a subclone (a proper subclone, resp.)…
We give a full description of all sets of functions on the group $(\mathbb{ Z}_p, +)$ of prime order which are closed under the composition with the clone generated by $+$ from both sides. Thereby, we also get a description of all iterative…
Due to the Baker-Pixley theorem we know that every clone over a finite domain $A$ containing a near-unanimity operation $g$ is finitely generated. Therefore there exists an integer $k$ such that the clone is generated by its $k$-ary part.…
For each clone C on a set A there is an associated equivalence relation analogous to Green's R-relation, which relates two operations on A iff each one is a substitution instance of the other using operations from C. We study the clones for…
In this article, we prove infinitary version of one to one correspondence theorem between clones and relational clones on a fixed possibly infinite set. We also characterize the relational clone corresponding to the clone of all finitary…
We prove that every clone of operations on a finite set A, if it contains a Malcev operation, is finitely related -- i.e., identical with the clone of all operations respecting R for some finitary relation R over A. It follows that for a…
Let A be a finite non-singleton set. For |A|=2 we show that the partial clone consisting of all selfdual monotone partial functions on A is not finitely generated, while it is the intersection of two finitely generated maximal partial…
We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite $p$-groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal'cev term and simple congruence lattice. The…
For each clone C on a set A there is an associated equivalence relation analogous to Green's R-relation, which relates two operations on A if and only if each one is a substitution instance of the other using operations from C. We study the…
We investigate finitary functions from $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$ to $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$ for a squarefree number $n$. We show that the lattice of all clones on the squarefree set $\mathbb{Z}_{p_1\cdots p_m}$ which contain the addition of…
Clonoids are sets of finitary functions from an algebra $\mathbb{A}$ to an algebra $\mathbb{B}$ that are closed under composition with term functions of $\mathbb{A}$ on the domain side and with term functions of $\mathbb{B}$ on the codomain…
We show that on an infinite set, there exist no other precomplete clones closed under conjugation except those which contain all permutations. Since on base sets of some infinite cardinalities, in particular on countably infinite ones, the…
We give an example of a finitely based locally finite variety which has uncountably many term clones. (Such varieties were known before.)
The following result has been shown recently in the form of a dichotomy: For every total clone $C$ on $\mathbf{2} := \{0,1\}$, the set $\mathcal{I}(C)$ of all partial clones on $\mathbf{2}$ whose total component is $C$, is either finite or…
We investigate the complexity of the lattice of local clones over a countably infinite base set. In particular, we prove that this lattice contains all algebraic lattices with at most countably many compact elements as complete sublattices,…
Clones of functions play a foundational role in both universal algebra and theoretical computer science. In this work, we introduce clone merge monoids (cm-monoids), a unifying one-sorted algebraic framework that integrates abstract clones,…
This report presents an expression for the number of a multiset's sub-multisets of a given cardinality as a function of the multiplicity of its elements. This is also the number of distinct samples of a given size that may be produced by…
