Arithmetical categories and commutator theory

Abstract: We characterize Maltsev categories in terms of internal groupoids (internal pregroupoids) and their associated commutators. As a consequence we get a description of arithmetical categories.Mathematics Subject Classifications (1991). 18B10, 8B05, 18B25.

“…When C is exact Mal'cev, we have the following characterization: Following the varietal case, a category which satisfies the conditions of this theorem is called arithmetical, see [14] and [5]. When C is only regular Mal'cev, the situation given by Theorem 3.1 is characterized by a weak occurrence of the congruence distributivity: THEOREM 3.3.…”

“…This is M. C. Pedicchio who first gave an answer for the exact Mal'cev categories with coequalizers [14]: namely the property that any internal groupoid be an equivalence relation. This first result has been generalized to any exact Mal'cev category in [5].…”

“…T ∧ R = X and T ∧ S = X ⇒ T ∧ (R ∨ S) = X When the Mal'cev category D is exact, it is stiffly Mal'cev if and only if it is congruence distributive [25]. The aim of this section is to investigate the eccentral and faithful groupoids in this context and, in particular, to show that the dual of any boolean topos E is a groupoid accessible stiffly Mal'cev category in which the only faithful groupoids are the undiscrete equivalence relations ∇ Y .…”

“…An important aspect of modular varieties is that they admit a good theory of commutators of congruences [7], [10], [11], [16]. Any congruence is an internal reflexive graph, actually a groupoid, and the importance of internal categorical structures in commutator theory has been pointed out in various recents papers [3], [4], [6], [12], [13], [18], [19], [20]. The purpose of this paper is to prove some properties of these internal structures which make it possible to characterize important classes of modular varieties.…”
