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.

Congruence preserving expansions of nilpotent algebras
TLDR
Those nilpotent algebras of prime power order and finite type in congruence modular varieties that have infinitely many polynomially inequivalent congruent expansions are characterized.
Rings of congruence preserving functions, II
Abstract For several classes of special p-groups G, of exponent p, p > 2, we show that the near-ring, of congruence preserving functions on G is a ring if and only if G is a 1-affine complete group.
Rings of congruence preserving functions
TLDR
This work investigates the question “When is C_0 (G)$$C0(G) a ring?” and obtains information externally via the lattice structure of the normal subgroups of G and internally via structural properties of the group G.
Congruence lattices forcing nilpotency
Given a lattice $\mathbb{L}$ and a class $K$ of algebraic structures, we say that $\mathbb{L}$ \emph{forces nilpotency} in $K$ if every algebra $\mathbf{A} \in K$ whose congruence lattice…
Projectivity and linkage for completely join irreducible ideals of an expanded group
Specialized from lattice theory to the lattice of ideals of an expanded group, the equivalence relation of projectivity between two intervals of ideals I[A, B] and I[C, D] of an expanded group V…
The Weak Descending Chain Condition on Right Ideals for Nearrings
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a weaker form of the descending chain condition on right ideals than the standard one. We shall see that fundamental results about socle and Frattini series…

Types of polynomial completeness of expanded groups
Abstract.The polynomial functions of an algebra preserve all congruence relations. In addition, if the algebra is finite, they preserve the labelling of the congruence lattice in the sense of Tame…

We establish several properties of Bulatov’s higher commutator operations in congruence permutable varieties. We use higher commutators to prove that for a finite nilpotent algebra of finite type…

On Hagemann's and Herrmann's characterization of strictly affine complete algebras
Abstract. In [4], J.Hagemann and C. Herrmann have characterized those algebras that are strictly k-affine complete for all $ k \in {\Bbb N} $. In the present note, we prove a very similar…

Sequences of Commutator Operations
TLDR
Given the congruence lattice of a finite algebra A with a Mal’cev term, it is shown that if it is infinite, then ${{\mathbb{L}}}$ is the union of two proper subintervals with nonempty intersection.
