Abstract:
AbstractGivant [6] generalized the notion of an atomic pair-dense relation algebra from Maddux [13] by defining the notion of a measurable relation algebra, that is to say, a relation algebra in which the identity element is a sum of atoms that can be measured in the sense that the “size” of each such atom can be defined in an intuitive and reasonable way (within the framework of the first-order theory of relation algebras). In Andréka--Givant [2], a large class of examples of such algebras is constructed from systems of groups, coordinated systems of isomorphisms between quotients of the groups, and systems of cosets that are used to “shift” the operation of relative multiplication. In Givant--Andréka [8], it is shown that the class of these full coset relation algebras is adequate to the task of describing all measurable relation algebras in the sense that every atomic and complete measurable relation algebra is isomorphic to a full coset relation algebra.Call an algebra $\mathfrak{A}$ a coset relation algebra if $\mathfrak{A}$ is embeddable into some full coset relation algebra. In the present article, it is shown that the class of coset relation algebras is equationally axiomatizable (that is to say, it is a variety), but that no finite set of sentences suffices to axiomatize the class (that is to say, the class is not finitely axiomatizable).

Abstract:
Point algebras introduced by Evans are algebraic systems which capture the essence of multiplications (a,b) · (c,d)=(p,q) defined on the set of all ordered pairs of elements of a set S, where p and q are selected from among a,b,c,d by some well-defined rule. In 1961, Jonsson and Tarski gave an interesting example of a variety of algebras of type 〈2,1,1〉 for illustrating the failure of certain free algebra properties. In this paper, we show that this equational class of algebras, called the JT-variety, is a universal variety of point algebras in the sense that every variety generated by a point algebra is a reduct of the JT-variety.

Abstract:
Let L denote the subvariety lattice of the variety of distributive double p-algebras, that is, the lattice whose universe consists of all varieties of distributive double p-algebras and whose ordering is the inclusion relation. We prove in this paper that each proper filter in L is uncountable. Moreover, we prove that except for the trivial variety (the zero in L) and the variety of Boolean algebras (the unique atom in L) every other element of L, generated by a finite algebra, has infinitely many covers in L, among which at least one is not generated by any finite algebra. The former result strengthens a result of Urquhart who showed that the lattice L is uncountable. On the other hand, both of our results indicate a high complexity of the lattice L at least in comparison with the subvariety lattice of the variety of distributive p-algebras, since a result of Lee shows that the latter lattice forms a chain of type ω + 1 and every cover in it of the variety generated by a finite algebra is itself generated by a finite algebra.

An algebra is called skew-symmetric if its multiplication operation is a skewsymmetric bilinear application.

A variety of algebras is said to be Schreier if any subalgebra of a free algebra of this variety is free in the same variety of algebras. For free algebras of finite ranks of Schreier varieties we prove that if two systems of elements are stably equivalent, then they are equivalent. We define the rank of an endomorphism of a free algebra of a Schreier variety and prove that an injective endomorphism of maximal rank does not change the rank of elements of maximal rank.

Abstract:
A V-labelled poset P can induce an operation on the languages on any fixed alphabet, as well as an operation on labelled posets (as noticed by Pratt and Gischer (Pratt 1986; Gischer 1988)). For any collection X of V-labelled posets and any alphabet Σ we obtain an X-algebra ΣX of languages on Σ. We consider the variety Lang(X) generated by these algebras when X is a collection of nonempty ‘traceable posets’. The current paper contains several observations about this variety. First, we use one of the basic results in Bloom and Ésik (1996) to show that a concrete description of the A-generated free algebra in Lang(X) is the X-subalgebra generated by the singletons (labelled a∈A) in the X-algebra of all A-labelled posets. Equipped with an appropriate ordering, these same algebras are the free ordered algebras in the variety Lang(X)[les ] of ordered language X-algebras. Further, if one enriches the language algebras by adding either a binary or infinitary union operation, the free algebras in the resulting variety are described by certain ‘closed’ subsets of the original free algebras. Second, we show that for ‘reasonable sets’ X, the variety Lang(X) has the property that for each n[ges ]2, the n-generated free algebra is a subalgebra of the 1-generated free algebra. Third, knowing the free algebras enables us to show that these varieties are generated by the finite languages on a two-letter alphabet.

A congruence relation θ on an algebra L is principal if there exist a, b)∈L such that θ is the smallest congruence relation for which (a, b)∈θ. The property that, for every algebra in a variety, the intersection of two principal congruences is again a principal congruence is one that is known to be shared by many varieties (see, for example, K. A. Baker [1]). One such example is the variety of Boolean algebras. De Morgan algebras are a generalization of Boolean algebras and it is the intersection of principal congruences in the variety of de Morgan algebras that is to be considered in this note.

Abstract:
Graph algebras establish a connection between directed graphs without multiple edges and special universal algebras of type (2,0). We say that a graph G satisfies a term equation s ≈ t if the corresponding graph algebra A(G) satisfies s ≈ t. A class of graph algebras V is called a graph variety if V = ModgΣ where Σ is a subset of T(X) × T(X). A graph variety V' = ModgΣ' is called a biregular leftmost graph variety if Σ' is a set of biregular leftmost term equations. A term equation s ≈ t is called an identity in a variety V if G satisfies s ≈ t for all G ∈ V. In this paper we characterize identities in each biregular leftmost graph variety. For identities, varieties and other basic concepts of universal algebra see e.g. [1].

We associate to each variety of algebras of finite signature a function on the positive integers called the equational complexity of the variety. This function is a measure of how much of the equational theory of a variety must be tested to determine whether a finite algebra belongs to the variety. We provide general methods for giving upper and lower bounds on the growth of equational complexity functions and provide examples using algebras created from graphs and from finite automata. We also show that finite algebras which are inherently nonfinitely based via the shift automorphism method cannot be used to settle an old problem of Eilenberg and Schützenberger.

The class of strictly real Banach algebras is shown to be a variety, and the manner of their generation by suitable elements is proved.

Conversely, we show in two special cases that a weakly abelian variety is residually bounded by a finite number: when it is generated by an E-minimal, or by a finite strongly nilpotent algebra. This establishes the RS-conjecture for E-minimal algebras.

Abstract:
A new construction of algebras called a mapping extension of an algebra is here introduced. The construction yields a generalization of some classical constructions such as the nilpotent extension of an algebra, inflation of a semigroup but also the square extension construction introduced recently for idempotent groupoids. The mapping extension construction is defined for algebras of any fixed type, however nullary operation symbols are here not admitted. It is based on the notion of a retraction and some system of mappings. A mapping extension of a given algebra is constructed as a counterimage algebra by a specially defined retraction. Varieties of algebras satisfying an identity φ(x) ≈ x for a term φ not being a variable (such as varieties of lattices, Boolean algebras, groups and rings) are especially interesting because for such a variety [Formula: see text], all mapping extensions by φ of algebras from [Formula: see text] form an equational class. In the last section, combinatorial properties of the mapping extension construction are considered.

Let be a finitely presented variety with operations Ω and let be the variety having the same set of operations Ω but defined by the empty set of identities.

An incomplete -algebra is a partial -algebra which satisfies the defining identities of , insofar as they can be applied to the partial operations of (Trevor Evans [4, p. 67]). We call an incomplete -algebra a partial Evans-algebra if it can be embedded in a member of the variety .If the class of all partial Evans -algebras is (first-order) finitely axiomatizable, then the word problem for the variety is solvable. (Evans [4, 5]). In 1953 Evans [5, p. 79] raised the question of whether the converse is true. In this paper we show that the answer is in the negative.Let CSg denote the variety of commutative semigroups. We call an incomplete CSg-algebra an incomplete commutative semigroup and we call a partial Evans CSg-algebra a partial Evans commutative semigroup. It is known (A. I. Malcev [9] see also Evans [6]) that the variety of commutative semigroups has solvable word problem. We show (Theorem 1) that the class of all partial Evans commutative semigroups is not finitely axiomatizable.

Abstract:
We assume the reader has some familiarity with theories and iteration theories. The main topic of the paper is properties of varieties of iteration algebras. After a preliminary section which contains all of the necessary definitions, we spend some time on a coproduct construction which is needed to prove a fundamental lemma: for each iteration theory T, any T-algebra is a retract of a T-iteration algebra. The proof of the lemma shows that only one property of iteration theories is used: the parameter identity. Hence, the lemma applies to any preiteration theory in which this identity is valid. It follows from this fact that the variety of all T-iteration algebras has “nice” properties only when every T-algebra is an iteration algebra. Some of the possible pathology in varieties of iteration algebras is demonstrated. It is shown that for each set Z of non-negative integers there is a variety of iteration algebras having an n-generated free algebra iff n∈Z. Also given is a theorem characterizing certain functors between varieties of iteration theories which are induced by iteration theory morphisms. We find an explicit description of all of the theory congruences on theories of partial functions. The last section is connected with the strong iteration algebras introduced in a paper by Ésik (1983).

This paper is devoted to the varieties of Leibnitz algebras over a field of zero characteristic. All information about the variety in case of zero characteristic of the base field is contained in the space of multilinear elements of its relatively free algebra. Multilinear component of variety is considered as a module of symmetric group and splits into a direct sum of irreducible submodules, the sum of multiplicities of which is called colength of variety. This paper investigates the identities that are performed in varieties with finite colength and also the relationship of this varieties with known varieties of Lie and Leibnitz algebras with this property. We prove necessary and sufficient condition for a finiteness of colength of variety of Leibnitz algebras.

Abstract:
This paper describes a derivation process for varieties and equational theories using the theory of hypersubstitutions and M-hyperidentities. A hypersubstitution σ of type τ is a map which takes each n-ary operation symbol of the type to an n-ary term of this type. If [Formula: see text] is an algebra of type τ then the algebra [Formula: see text] is called a derived algebra of [Formula: see text]. If V is a class of algebras of type τ then one can consider the variety vσ(V) generated by the class of all derived algebras from V. In the first two sections the necessary definitions are given. In Sec. 3 the properties of derived varieties and derived equational theories are described. On the set of all derived varieties of a given variety, a quasiorder is developed which gives a derivation diagram. In the final section the derivation diagram for the largest solid variety of medial semigroups is worked out.

A variety ${\cal V}$ is standard if every Boolean topological algebra with the algebraic reduct in ${\cal V}$ is profinite.We show that there is no algorithm which takes as input a finite algebra A of a finite type and decide whether the variety $V\left( {\bf{A}} \right)$ generated by A is standard. We also show the undecidability of some related properties. In particular, we solve a problem posed by Clark, Davey, Freese, and Jackson.We accomplish this by combining two results. The first one is Moore’s theorem saying that there is no algorithm which takes as input a finite algebra A of a finite type and decides whether $V\left( {\bf{A}} \right)$ has definable principal subcongruences. The second is our result saying that possessing definable principal subcongruences yields possessing finitely determined syntactic congruences for varieties. The latter property is known to yield standardness.

Abstract:
The discrete LS algebra over a totally ordered set is the homogeneous coordinate ring of an irreducible projective (normal) toric variety. We prove that this algebra is the ring of invariants of a finite abelian group containing no pseudo-reflection acting on a polynomial ring. This is used to study the Gorenstein property for LS algebras. Further we show that any LS algebra is Koszul.

Abstract:
The connection between classical model theoretical types (MT-types) and logically-geometrical types (LG-types) introduced by B. Plotkin is considered. It is proved that MT-types of two [Formula: see text]-tuples in two universal algebras coincide if and only if their LG-types coincide. Two problems set by B. Plotkin are considered: (1) let two tuples in an algebra have the same type, does it imply that they are connected by an automorphism of this algebra? and (2) let two algebras have the same type, does it imply that they are isomorphic? Some varieties of universal algebras are considered having in view these problems. In particular, it is proved that if a variety is hopfian or co-hopfian, then finitely generated free algebras of such a variety are completely determined by their type.

Abstract:
A well founded way of researching the linear algebra is the study of it using the identities, consequences of which is the identity of nilpotent. We know the Nagata-Higman’s theorem that says that associative algebra with nil condition of limited index over a field of zero characteristic is nilpotent. It is well known the result of E.I.Zel’manov about nilpotent algebra with Engel identity. A set of linear algebras where a fixed set of identities takes place, following A.I. Maltsev, is called a variety. The variety is called almost nilpotent if it is not nilpotent, but each its own subvariety is nilpotent. Here in the case of the main field with zero characteristic, we proved that for any positive integer m there exist commutative metabelian almost nilpotent variety of exponent is equal to m.

We determine the identities of degree ≤ 6 satisfied by the symmetric (Jordan) product a○b = ab + ba and the associator [a,b,c] = (ab)c - a(bc) in every nonassociative algebra. In addition to the commutative identity a○b = b○a we obtain one new identity in degree 4 and another new identity in degree 5. We demonstrate the existence of further new identities in degree 6. These identities define a variety of binary-ternary algebras which generalizes the variety of Jordan algebras in the same way that Akivis algebras generalize Lie algebras.

The membership problem asks whether a finite algebra belongs to the variety generated by another finite algebra.

Abstract:
B. A. Davey and H. A. Priestley have investigated the optimality of dualities on a quasivariety [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a finite algebra. Relative to a given set Ω of relations yielding a duality, they characterized the optimal dualities as the dualities determined by the transversals of a certain family of subsets of Ω. However the structure of these subsets — known as globally minimal failsets — remained to be understood. This paper gives a complete description of the globally minimal failsets which do not contain partial endomorphisms, and an algorithmic method to determine them. These results are applied, by way of illustration, to the variety of de Morgan algebras and to two further varieties, one of them an Ockham algebra variety and the other a variety of Heyting algebras. All the globally minimal failsets are determined in each case.

AbstractWe consider the finiteW-algebraU(𝔤,e) associated to a nilpotent elemente∈𝔤 in a simple complex Lie algebra 𝔤 of exceptional type. Using presentations obtained through an algorithm based on the PBW-theorem forU(𝔤,e), we verify a conjecture of Premet, thatU(𝔤,e) always has a 1-dimensional representation when 𝔤 is of typeG2,F4,E6orE7. Thanks to a theorem of Premet, this allows one to deduce the existence of minimal dimension representations of reduced enveloping algebras of modular Lie algebras of the above types. In addition, a theorem of Losev allows us to deduce that there exists a completely prime primitive ideal inU(𝔤) whose associated variety is the coadjoint orbit corresponding to e.

Abstract:
In this article we study algebraic functions in [Formula: see text]-subreducts of MV-algebras, also known as Łukasiewicz implication algebras. A function is algebraic on an algebra [Formula: see text] if it is definable by a conjunction of equations on [Formula: see text]. We fully characterize algebraic functions on every Łukasiewicz implication algebra belonging to a finitely generated variety. The main tool to accomplish this is a factorization result describing algebraic functions in a subproduct in terms of the algebraic functions of the factors. We prove a global representation theorem for finite Łukasiewicz implication algebras which extends a similar one already known for Tarski algebras. This result together with the knowledge of algebraic functions allowed us to give a partial description of the lattice of classes axiomatized by sentences of the form [Formula: see text] within the variety generated by the 3-element chain.

Abstract:
A class [Formula: see text] of algebras with a distinguished constant term 0 is called Fregean if congruences of algebras in [Formula: see text] are uniquely determined by their 0–cosets and ΘA (0,a) = ΘA (0,b) implies a = b for all [Formula: see text]. The structure of Fregean varieties is investigated. In particular it is shown that every congruence permutable Fregean variety consists of algebras that are expansions of equivalential algebras, i.e. algebras that form an algebraization of the purely equivalential fragment of the intuitionistic propositional logic. Moreover the clone of polynomials of any finite algebra A from a congruence permutable Fregean variety is uniquely determined by the congruence lattice of A together with the commutator of congruences. Actually we show that such an algebra A itself can be recovered (up to polynomial equivalence) from its congruence lattice expanded by the commutator, i.e. the structure ( Con (A); ∧, ∨, [·,·]). This leads to Fregean frames, a notion that generalizes Kripke frames for intuitionistic propositional logic.

Let F(x,y) be a relatively free algebra of rank 2 in some variety of algebras over a field K of characteristic 0. In this paper we consider the problem whether p(x,y) ∈ F(x,y) is a primitive element (i.e. an automorphic image of x): (i) If F(x,y)/(p(x,y)) ≅ F(z), the relatively free algebra of rank 1 (ii) If p(f,g) is primitive for some injective endomorphism (f,g) of F(x,y) (iii) If p(x,y) is primitive in a relatively free algebra of larger rank. These problems have positive solutions for polynomial algebras in two variables. We give the complete answer for the free metabelian associative and Lie algebras and some partial results for free associative algebras.

We consider the identities of a variety of semigroup-related algebras modelling the algebra of partial maps. We show that the identities are intimately related to a weak semigroup deductive system and we show that the equational theory is decidable. We do this by giving a term rewriting system for the variety. We then show that this variety has many subvarieties whose equational theory interprets the full uniform word problem for semigroups and consequently are undecidable. As a corollary it is shown that the equational theory of Clifford semigroups whose natural order is a semilattice is undecidable.

Abstract:
AbstractFinite $W$-algebras are certain associative algebras arising in Lie theory. Each $W$-algebra is constructed from a pair of a semisimple Lie algebra ${\mathfrak{g}}$ (our base field is algebraically closed and of characteristic 0) and its nilpotent element $e$. In this paper we classify finite-dimensional irreducible modules with integral central character over $W$-algebras. In more detail, in a previous paper the first author proved that the component group $A(e)$ of the centralizer of the nilpotent element under consideration acts on the set of finite-dimensional irreducible modules over the $W$-algebra and the quotient set is naturally identified with the set of primitive ideals in $U({\mathfrak{g}})$ whose associated variety is the closure of the adjoint orbit of $e$. In this paper, for a given primitive ideal with integral central character, we compute the corresponding $A(e)$-orbit. The answer is that the stabilizer of that orbit is basically a subgroup of $A(e)$ introduced by G. Lusztig. In the proof we use a variety of different ingredients: the structure theory of primitive ideals and Harish-Chandra bimodules for semisimple Lie algebras, the representation theory of $W$-algebras, the structure theory of cells and Springer representations, and multi-fusion monoidal categories.

Abstract:
A characteristic algebra for a hereditary property of identities of a fixed type τ is an algebra [Formula: see text] such that for any variety V of type τ, we have [Formula: see text] if and only if every identity satisfied by V has the property p. This is equivalent to [Formula: see text] being a generator for the variety determined by all identities of type τ which have property p. Płonka has produced minimal (smallest cardinality) characteristic algebras for a number of hereditary properties, including regularity, normality, uniformity, biregularity, right- and leftmost, outermost, and external-compatibility. In this paper, we use a construction of Płonka to study minimal characteristic algebras for the property of rectangular k-normality. In particular, we construct minimal characteristic algebras of type (2) for k-normality and rectangularity for 1 ≤ k ≤ 3.

Abstract:
This paper surveys several different variants of order sorted algebra (abbreviated OSA), comparing some of the main approaches (overloaded OSA, universe OSA, unified algebra, term declaration algebra, etc.), emphasising motivation and intuitions, and pointing out features that distinguish the original ‘overloaded’ OSA approach from some later developments. These features include sort constraints and retracts; the latter is particularly useful for handling multiple data representations (including automatic coercions among them). Many examples are given, for most of which, runs are shown on the OBJ3 system.This paper also significantly generalises overloaded OSA by dropping the regularity and monotonicity assumptions, and by adding signatures of non-monotonicities, which support simple semantics for some aspects of object oriented programming. A number of new results for this generalisation are proved, including initiality, variety, and quasi-variety theorems. Axiomatisability results à la Birkhoff are also proved for unified algebras.
