Abstract

An algebra is called weakly diagonal if every subuniverse of its square contains the graph of an automorphism. We show that every variety generated by a finite algebra with no proper subalgebras has a weakly diagonal generator. The result is applied in several ways and, in particular, to show that every arithmetical affine complete variety of finite type has equationally definable principal congruences.
