The relationship between two commutators
KA Kearnes, Á Szendrei - International Journal of Algebra and …, 1998 - World Scientific
We clarify the relationship between the linear commutator and the ordinary commutator by
showing that in any variety satisfying a nontrivial idempotent Mal'cev condition the linear …

[PDF][PDF] Bounded relational width
A Bulatov - Unpublished manuscript, 2009 - Citeseer
We prove that CSP (A) for an idempotent algebra A has bounded relational width if and only
if var (A) omits the unary and affine types. If it has bounded relational width it has relational …

Graphs of finite algebras: edges, and connectivity
AA Bulatov - Algebra universalis, 2024 - Springer
We refine and advance the study of the local structure of idempotent finite algebras started in

Subquasivarieties of regularized varieties
C Bergman, A Romanowska - Algebra Universalis, 1996 - Springer
This paper considers the lattice of subquasivarieties of a regular variety. In particular we
show that if V is a strongly irregular variety that is minimal as a quasivariety, then the …
