Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0745.00017.] This paper intends to give a fairly broad survey on locally finite minimal varieties and the finite strictly simple algebras generating them. After a short introduction into the general background and the main problems, the minimal varieties of classical algebras (e.g. groups, rings, semigroups, relation algebras) and some generalizations thereof (e.g. \(n\)-groups, medial quasigroups, semirings, etc.) are discussed. The rest of the paper is devoted to results that are already typically of universal algebraic character. The deepest theorem achieved so far in the topic is the characterization of locally finite, minimal, congruence modular varieties, which includes many of the classical examples as special cases. The final section contains the author's results (found until 1990) on finite strictly simple algebras in which all fundamental operations are surjective. These algebras include all finite strictly simple algebras with a single nonconstant fundamental operation.
