Finite generation of congruence preserving functions

We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite p -groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal’cev term and simple congruence lattice. The characterization for p -groups allows a generalization to a large class of e...

Zusammenfassung:We investigate when the clone of congruence preserving functions is finitely generated. We obtain a full description for all finite p -groups, and for all finite algebras with Mal’cev term and simple congruence lattice. The characterization for p -groups allows a generalization to a large class of expansions of groups.
