Title: On composition of polynomials. (In English)
Source: Algebra Univers. 7, 357-360 (1977).
Review: In this paper the order of enlargeability \epsilon(A) of an algebra A over a field F is investigated. Let A(n) denote the set of all n-ary polynomial operations of A and A(\omega) the set of all polynomial operations of A, then \epsilon(a): = max {n: \forallB([A(n) = B(n)] ==> [A(\omega)\supseteq B(\omega)])}, where min {Ø}: = oo. \epsilon(A) is determined for algebras A over countable and uncountable fields F. Special results are obtained for A = F.
