The congruence lattices of all algebras defined on a fixed finite set $A$ ordered by inclusion form a finite atomistic lattice $\mathcal E$. We describe the atoms and coatoms. Each meet-irreducible element of $\mathcal E$ being determined…
Universal algebra and clone theory have proven to be a useful tool in the study of constraint satisfaction problems since the complexity, up to logspace reductions, is determined by the set of polymorphisms of the constraint language. For…
A clonoid is a set of finitary functions from a set $A$ to a set $B$ that is closed under taking minors. Hence clonoids are generalizations of clones. By a classical result of Post, there are only countably many clones on a 2-element set.…
An infinite permutation is a linear ordering of the set of non-negative integers. Generally, the properties of infinite permutations analogous to those of infinite words show some resemblances and some differences between permutations and…
We describe the ordering of a class of clones by minion homomorphisms, also known as minor preserving maps or height 1 clone homomorphisms. The class consists of all clones on finite sets determined by binary relations whose projections to…
We completely determine all varieties of monoids on whose free objects all fully invariant congruences or all fully invariant congruences contained in the least semilattice congruence permute. Along the way, we find several new monoid…
The interval poset of a permutation catalogues the intervals that appear in its one-line notation, according to set inclusion. We study this poset, describing its structural, characterizing, and enumerative properties.
We give three examples of large intervals in the lattice of (local) clones on an infinite set X, by exhibiting clones C_1, C_2, C_3 such that: (1) the interval [C_1, O] in the lattice of local clones is (as a lattice) isomorphic to {0,1,2,…
The C-minor partial orders determined by the clones generated by a semilattice operation (and possibly the constant operations corresponding to its identity or zero elements) are shown to satisfy the descending chain condition.
In this note we give a presentation for the monoid $IO_n$ of all order-preserving transformations of a $n$-chain whose ranges are intervals. We also consider the submonoid $IO_n^-$ of $IO_n$ consisting of order-decreasing transformations,…
The main problem of clone theory is to describe the clone lattice for a given basic set. For a two-element basic set this was resolved by E.L. Post, but for at least three-element basic set the full structure of the lattice is still…
We introduce a monomial ideal whose standard monomials encode the vertices of all fibers of a lattice. We study the minimal generators, the radical, the associated primes and the primary decomposition of this ideal, as well as its relation…
It is unknown so far, whether the lattice of all varieties of monoids satisfies some non-trivial identity. The objective of this note is to give the negative answer to this question. Namely, we prove that any finite lattice is a homomorphic…
There are continuum many clones on a three-element set even if they are considered up to \emph{homomorphic equivalence}. The clones we use to prove this fact are clones consisting of \emph{self-dual operations}, i.e., operations that…
We investigate clones in the interval between the group polynomials and the ring polynomials of ${\mathbb Z}_8$. This is the simplest open case of the problem, as the answer is known for ${\mathbb Z}_{p^2}$ (with $p$ prime) and, in general,…
The set of all transformation monoids on a fixed set of infinite cardinality \lambda, equipped with the order of inclusion, forms a complete algebraic lattice Mon(\lambda) with 2^{\lambda} compact elements. We show that this lattice is…
The sets of all neutral, distributive and lower-modular elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties are finite, countably infinite and uncountably infinite, respectively. In 2018, we established that there are precisely three neutral…
Let $M$ be a cancellative and commutative monoid (written additively). The monoid $M$ is atomic if every non-invertible element can be written as a sum of irreducible elements (often called atoms in the literature). Weaker versions of…
This paper presents a unified framework for determining the congruences on a number of monoids and categories of transformations, diagrams, matrices and braids, and on all their ideals. The key theoretical advances present an iterative…
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,…
