Abstract: Under a minimum of assumptions, we develop in generality the basic theory of universal algebra in a symmetric monoidal closed category $mathcalV$ with respect to a specified system of arities $j:mathcalJhookrightarrowmathcalV$. Lawvere's notion of algebraic theory generalizes to this context, resulting in the notion of single-sorted $mathcalV$-enriched $mathcalJ$-cotensor theory, or $mathcalJ$-theory for short. For suitable choices of $mathcalV$ and $mathcalJ$, such $mathcalJ$-theories include the enriched algebraic theories of Borceux and Day, the enriched Lawvere theories of Power, the equational theories of Linton's 1965 work, and the $mathcalV$-theories of Dubuc, which are recovered by taking $mathcalJ=mathcalV$ and correspond to arbitrary $mathcalV$-monads on $mathcalV$. We identify a modest condition on $j$ that entails that the $mathcalV$-category of $mathcalT$-algebras exists and is monadic over $mathcalV$ for every $mathcalJ$-theory $mathcalT$, even when $mathcalT$ is not small and $mathcalV$ is neither complete nor cocomplete. We show that $j$ satisfies this condition if and only if $j$ presents $mathcalV$ as a free cocompletion of $mathcalJ$ with respect to the weights for left Kan extensions along $j$, and so we call such systems of arities eleutheric. We show that $mathcalJ$-theories for an eleutheric system may be equivalently described as (i) monads in a certain one-object bicategory of profunctors on $mathcalJ$, and (ii) $mathcalV$-monads on $mathcalV$ satisfying a certain condition. We prove a characterization theorem for the categories of algebras of $mathcalJ$-theories, considered as $mathcalV$-categories $mathcalA$ equipped with a specified $mathcalV$-functor $mathcalAightarrowmathcalV$.
