Abstract

A description of all varieties categorically equivalent to a fixed fi­ nitely generated variety of modes is provided. The characterization is in terms of a set of basic operation symbols and identities.

For the special case of semilattices, a one-to-one correspondence between the categorically equivalent varieties and the isomorphism types of finite posets is exhibited. Applications to rectangular and left-normal bands, and to affine modules are also discussed.
