On atomicity of free algebras in certain cylindric-like varieties

Abstract: In this paper we show that the one-generated free three dimensional polyadic and substitutional algebras Fr 1 PA 3 and Fr 1 SCA 3 are not atomic. What is more, their corresponding logics have the Gödel's incompleteness property. This provides a partial solution to a longstanding open problem of Németi and Maddux going back to Alfred Tarski via the book [Tarski-Givant].

“…Atoms in these free algebras correspond to finitely axiomatizable complete and consistent theories, while the atomicity of these free algebras correspond to the failure of Gödel's incompleteness theorem for the corresponding logics. For more details about this correspondence, see [10], [42], [43], [33] and [35].…”

“…These properties were defined by I. Németi in 1985 and named by him in appreciation of the pioneering work of K. Gödel. For more details concerning these incompleteness properties, see [4,14,17,15,18].Normal forms are essentially used in establishing results in both algebra and logic, e.g.[10], [12] and [13]. In the application section, we apply our general theorem to produce normal forms for Boolean algebras with operators.…”

“…The non-atomicity of the free algebras of logics is equivalent to weak Gödel's incompleteness property of the corresponding logic. See (Németi, 1985, proposition 8) and (Gyenis, 2011).…”
