Jun 29, 2021 at 16:33 comment added user107952 @JoelDavidHamkins I mean, an algebraic structure is finitely based, when the universally quantified equations that are valid in that structure can be generated from a finite set. And a consequence relation is finitely based when there are a finite number of rules that, when the rules are closed under substitution, give the whole consequence relation.

Jun 29, 2021 at 8:35 comment added Joel David Hamkins Can you explain what it means, exactly, for an algebraic structure to have a finite basis of identities? Do you mean that it can be finitely presented? That is, there is a finite list of generators and identities so that if I form all words and quotient by those identities I get the given structure?
