The study of algebraic structures and properties applying to large classes of such structures. For example, ideas from group theory and ring theory are extended and considered for structures with other signatures (systems of basic or fundamental operations).

Example of a non-finitely based variety with explicit set of defining identities

There are many examples of non-finitely based varieties. In a finite signature, is there an example of such variety with a known explicit set of identities?

Product of two algebras with maximum condition

Suppose $A$ and $B$ are two algebras of the same signature, both having maximum condition on sub-algebras. Is it true that $A\times B$ has the same property?

Examples of algebras satisfying (a+b)(c+d)=ac+bd

Is there a known example of an algebra $(A, +, \cdot)$ with two binary commutative (see P.S below) and idempotent operations $+$ and $\cdot$ satisfying the identity $(a+b)(c+d)=ac+bd$? Actually I …

Relatively free algebras in a variety generated by a single algebra

Suppose $A$ is an algebra of signature $\mathcal{L}$ and $V=Var(A)$ is the variety generated by $A$. I want to know is it possible to classify relatively free elements of $V$? As a special case, for a …

Non finitely based varieties of groups defined by finitely many variables

A set $\Sigma$ of group identities is called bounded if there is $n\geq 1$ such that for any $(w\approx 1)\in \Sigma$, we have $w\in F(x_1, \ldots, x_n)$. A variety $\mathbf{V}$ is called bounded defi …

Minimal generating sets of free algebras of varieties

Let $V$ be a variety and $F$ be a relatively free algebra in $V$. Suppose $X$ is a minimal generating set for $F$. Under what conditions we can deduce that $X$ is a free basis of $F$?

Two questions about axiomatic rank of groups

Let $G$ be a group and $V=Var(G)$ be the variety generated by $G$. Suppose the axiomatic rank of $V$ is $n$. Let $Id(V)$ be the set of all identities of $V$. 1- Can we say that every element of $Id(V …

Why the axiomatic rank of the variety of groups is equal to three?

I am thankful of Anton Klyachko who introduced axiomatic rank to me: the axiomatic rank of a variety is the minimum number of variables which we need to define that variety by identities. It seems cl …

The existence of an algebra whose set of identities and first order theory are equivalent

Is there an algebra $A$ (for example a group) such that $Th(A)$ is logically equivalent to $id(A)$? In other words, is there an algebra $A$ such that $$ Mod(Th(A))=Var(A)? $$ Clearly finite algebras d …

Negated varieties and their relatively free algebras

During the past days, I asked some questions in order to gain a clear understanding of the notion of "free algebras". I suppose that the question below is the most clear image of the concept I have …

Negated varieties and their relatively free algebras

This is a complete answer to the question 1, based on the idea of user45359: We have $F_{Var^-(A)}(X)=T_{\mathcal{L}}(X)$. Proof. Let $id^-(A)\vDash p\approx q$. By the unique readability of terms, …

A preprint of Sela concerning the work of Kharlampovich-Miyasnikov

Yesterday, Z. Sela published a preprint in arXiv which claims that the solution of Olga Kharlampovich and Alexi Miyasnikov for the Tarski problem on decidablity of the first order theories of free g …

Non-trivial problems about the trivial group

Is there any non-trivial problem (maybe open problem) about the trivial group? I asked already a question about the Laws characterizing the trivial group. There is a description of such laws. As ano …

Natural associative law for a ternary "group"?

What you need is the keyword "polyadic groups". A polyadic group is a non-empty set $G$ equipped with an associative $n$-ary operation $f:G^n\to G$ such that for all $a_1, \ldots, a_{n}$ and $b\in G$, …
