Function Algebras on Finite Sets Basic Course on Many-Valued Logic and Clone Theory /

Functions which are defined on finite sets occur in almost all fields of mathematics. For more than 80 years algebras whose universes are such functions (so-called function algebras), have been intensively studied. This book gives a broad introduction to the theory of function algebras and leads to...
