The notion of a weakly Mal'tsev category, as it was introduced in 2008 by the third author, is a generalization of the classical notion of a Mal'tsev category. It is well-known that a variety of universal algebras is a Mal'tsev category if…
We characterize commutative idempotent involutive residuated lattices as disjoint unions of Boolean algebras arranged over a distributive lattice. We use this description to introduce a new construction, called gluing, that allows us to…
We prove two results intended to streamline proofs about cellularity that pass through mutual algebraicity. First, we show that a countable structure $M$ is cellular if and only if $M$ is $\omega$-categorical and mutually algebraic. Second,…
A deductive system is structurally complete if its admissible inference rules are derivable. For several important systems, like modal logic S5, failure of structural completeness is caused only by the underivability of passive rules, i.e.…
A variety is said to be coherent if the finitely generated subalgebras of its finitely presented members are also finitely presented. In a recent paper by the authors it was shown that coherence forms a key ingredient of the uniform…
We construct a diagram D, indexed by a finite partially ordered set, of finite Boolean semilattices and (v,0,1)-embeddings, with top semilattice $2^4$, such that for any variety V of algebras, if D has a lifting, with respect to the…
Determining when a finite dimensional algebra satisfies the finiteness property known as the $(\textbf{Fg})$-condition is of fundamental importance in the celebrated and influential theory of support varieties. We give an answer to this…
The main result of this paper is to prove the existence of a finite basis in the description logic ${\cal ALC}$. We show that the set of General Concept Inclusions (GCIs) holding in a finite model has always a finite basis, i.e. these GCIs…
Checking the admissibility of quasiequations in a finitely generated (i.e., generated by a finite set of finite algebras) quasivariety Q amounts to checking validity in a suitable finite free algebra of the quasivariety, and is therefore…
We show that a perfect obstruction theory for a $\mathbb{G}_\text{m}$-gerbe determines a semi-perfect obstruction theory for its base, which is perfect if the gerbe is quasi-compact and affine-pointed. These results streamline the…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to a crucial computational error. In this paper we deal with the finite case. We prove that a finite bounded ordered set can be represented as the order of principal congruences of a finite…
Some recent papers formulated sufficient conditions for the decomposition of matrix variances. A statement was that if we have one or two observables, then the decomposition is possible. In this paper we consider an arbitrary finite set of…
A function on an algebra is congruence preserving if, for any congruence, it maps pairs of congruent elements onto pairs of congruent elements. We show that on the algebra of complete binary trees whose leaves are labeled by letters of an…
In an earlier work, the author observed that Boolean inverse semi-groups, with semigroup homomorphisms preserving finite orthogonal joins, form a congruence-permutable variety of algebras, called biases. We give a full description of…
Consider the algebraic dynamics on a torus T=G_m^n given by a matrix M in GL_n(Z). Assume that the characteristic polynomial of M is prime to all polynomials X^m-1. We show that any finite equivariant map from another algebraic dynamics…
We study, with the help of a computer program, the Polish Algorithm for finite terms satisfying various algebraic laws, e.g., left distributivity a(bc) = (ab)(ac). While the termination of the algorithm for left distributivity remains open…
The ring of invariant polynomials ${\mathbb C}[V]^G$ over a given finite dimensional representation space $V$ of a complex reductive group $G$ is known, by a famous theorem of Hilbert, to be finitely generated. The general proof being…
In this work, the lattice of varieties of semigroups and the lattice of varieties of I-semigroups (a common setting for both the variety of completely regular semigroups and the variety of inverse semigroups) are studied with respect to the…
We consider algebras with one binary operation $\cdot$ and one generator ({\it monogenic}) and satisfying the left distributive law $a\cdot (b\cdot c)=(a\cdot b)\cdot (a\cdot c)$. One can define a sequence of finite left-distributive…
For a finite lattice L, let EL denote the reflexive and transitive closure of the join-dependency relation on L, defined on the set J(L) of all join-irreducible elements of L. We characterize the relations of the form EL, as follows:…
