they generate. In particular, we look for counterexamples to the
conjecture that every dualizable algebra is finitely based.

Priestley duality
for BCK-algebras and discuss some complications.

group of automorphisms of a regular rooted tree. In this talk, we outline
how to obtain a group from an automaton and then discuss a particular
family of examples.

* **November 7**\\ <html> <span style="color:blue;font-size:120%">Matthew Moore </span></html> (McMaster University)\\ **// Dualizable algebras omitting types 1 and 5 have a cube term //** \\ \\ <WRAP center box 90%> **//Abstract//**: An early result in the theory of Natural Dualities is that an
algebra with a near unanimity (NU) term is dualizable. A converse to
this is also true: if V(A) is congruence distributive and A is
dualizable, then A has an NU term. An important generalization of the NU
term for congruence distributive varieties is the cube term for
congruence modular (CM) varieties, and it has been thought that a
similar characterization of dualizability for algebras in a CM variety
would also hold. We prove that if A omits tame congruence types 1 and 5
(all locally finite CM varieties omit these types) and is dualizable,
then A has a cube term.

* **November 8**\\ <html> <span style="color:blue;font-size:120%"> Colin Reid </span></html> (University of Newcastle)\\ **// Totally disconnected, locally compact groups //** \\ \\ <WRAP center box 90%> **//Abstract//**: Totally disconnected, locally compact (t.d.l.c.) groups are a
large class of topological groups that arise from a few different sources,
for instance as automorphism groups of combinatorial structures, or from
the study of isomorphisms between finite index subgroups of a given group.
Two analogies are that they are like 'discrete groups combined with compact
groups' or 'non-Archimedean Lie groups'. A general theory has begun to
emerge in recent years, in which we find that the interaction between
small-scale and large-scale structure in t.d.l.c. groups is somewhere
between the two extremes that these analogies would suggest. I will give a
survey of some ways in which these groups arise and a few recent results in
the area.

f.g. groups. The focus is on metabelian groups, virtually abelian groups,
and on the Baumslag-Solitar groups.

* **November 29**\\ <html> <span style="color:blue;font-size:120%">Joseph Cyr</span></html> (Binghamton University)\\ **// Embedding Modes into Semimodules //** \\ \\ <WRAP center box 90%> **//Abstract//**: A mode is an algebra which is idempotent and whose basic operations are
homomorphisms. The main focus of this talk will be to give a generalization
of Jezek and Kepka's embedding theorem for groupoid modes. We will show
that a mode is embeddable into a subreduct of a semimodule over a
commutative semiring if and only if it satisfies the so called Szendrei
identities. Thus the operations on Szendrei modes can be represented in a
particularly nice way. This will involve thinking of operations
"additively", that is, taking an n-ary operation and considering it as a
sum of n unary operations.
