A Finite Basis Theorem for Residually Finite, Congruence Meet-Semidistributive Varieties
We derive a Mal'cev condition for congruence meet-semidistributivity and then use it to prove two theorems. Theorem A: if a variety in a finite language is congruence meet-sem...

On the complexity of deciding connectedness and computing Betti numbers of a complex algebraic variety
We extend the lower bounds on the complexity of computing Betti numbers proved in [6] to complex algebraic varieties. More precisely, we first prove that the problem of deciding ...

Almost-Uniform Sampling of Points on High-Dimensional Algebraic Varieties
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials ...

Randomized and Deterministic Algorithms for the Dimension of Algebraic Varieties
We prove old and new results on the complexity of computing the dimension of algebraic varieties. In particular, we show that this problem is NP-complete in the Blum-Shub-Smale mo...

Epimorphisms in Certain Varieties of Algebras
We prove a lemma which, under restrictive conditions, shows that epimorphisms in V are surjective if this is true for epimorphisms from irreducible members of V . This lemma is app...
