Our result unifies earlier theorems describing pseudovarieties of finite algebras and the pseudovariety generated by a single oligomorphic algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-12-07T19:16:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "uniform birkhoff", "finitely generated algebras", "free algebra", "result unifies earlier theorems", "term clone" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
