Independence Algebras

Peter J‎. Cameron, Csaba Szabó · Journal of the London Mathematical Society · 2000

An independence algebra is an algebra A in which the subalgebras satisfy the exchange axiom, and any map from a basis of A into A extends to an endomorphism. Independence algebras fall into two classes; the first is specified by a set X, a group G, and a G-space C. The second is much more restricted; it is shown that the subalgebra lattice is a projective or affine geometry, and a complete classification of the finite algebras is given.
