heterogeneous algebra; relational structure; homomorphism; decomposable mapping; category of heterogeneous algebras
Summary:
A construction of all homomorphisms of a heterogeneous algebra into an algebra of the same type is presented. A relational structure is assigned to any heterogeneous algebra, and homomorphisms between these relational structures make it possible to construct homomorphisms between heterogeneous algebras. Homomorphisms of relational structures can be constructed using homomorphisms of algebras that are described in [11].
