Abstract:
The author describes all commutative unary algebras with finite number of unary operations which
have distributive lattice of congruences and cyclic elements in every operation.
It proves the following result:
Theorem 2.Let${\mathbf A}$=${\langle A, f_1, f_2, \ldots, f_m \rangle }$is a connected commutative unary algebra,
$m\geq 1$and$n_1, n_2, \ldots,n_m\geq 1$ — such a natural numbers, that$f_i^{n_i}(x)=x$for every$i\leq m$and every$x\in A$.
Then the following condition are equivalent: (1) The lattice of congruence on${\mathbf A}$has a distributive property.
(2) One can find natural numbers$k_1, k_2, \ldots, k_m\geq 1$and such an unary operation$h$on${\mathbf A}$, that
for every$i=1, 2, \ldots, m$and every$x\in A$it holds$f_i(x)=h^{k_i}(x)$.
