Varieties of relational structures
by
Jens-Uwe Grabowski
Dresden University of Technology
We discuss first order expressions of the form
|
for allx: (p1(x) <--> p2(x)), |
|
where p1 and p2 are primitive positive formulas.
The classes of finite relational structures axiomatized
by (possibly infinitely many) such expressions are
exactly the varieties of finite relational structures,
i.e. classes closed under formation of retracts and products.
We mention the connection with the construction of
categorically equivalent algebras.
