Hello, Given a total algebra 'S' does there exist a lattice 'L' such that the weak subalgebra lattices are isomorhic ? i.e.$ Su_{w}(S)\,\cong\,Su_{w}(L)$ ...
Can anybody know an example of finite algebra <A;F> satisfying these properties: (i) <A;F> has only three distinct congruences: {<a,a>, a in A}, \theta and ...

Let's try A = {0,1,2} and operations s(0)=1, s(1)=0, s(2)=2 b(x,y,z) = Pixley(x,y,z) if {x,y,z} is a subset of {0,1}; b(x,y,z)=2 otherwise Now for <A;s,b>, you...

Can't we just modify my example, to the algebra <A, s, b, 0, 1, 2> with the three constants. Now there are no subalgebras or proper automorphisms. The...

What about D_8, the dihedral group of order 8? The solution of x^2d = cx is x = d^{-1}c. This is because (xy)^2=(yx)^2 for all x,y in D_8. If there are x,y...

David's solution arrived while I was writing, so you didn't need mine. But I had another thought: There is a unique solution in any nilpotent group. Proceed by...

Thanks for the reply. I don't think that the language is augmented with constants for the elements of A, for two reasons: (1) A is assumed to be only *weakly*...
