Abstract
In this survey paper the short history of cylindric and finitary polyadic algebras (term-definitionally equivalent to quasi-polyadic algebras) is sketched, and the two concepts are compared. Roughly speaking, finitary polyadic algebras constitute a subclass of cylindric algebras that include a transposition operator being strong enough. We discuss the following question: should the definition of cylindric algebras include a transposition operator? Results confirm that the existence of a transposition operator ensures representability (by relativised set algebras). The different variants of cylindric algebras including a transposition operator play an important role in the theory of cylindric-like algebras.
