%0 Journal Article %T On embeddings of relational categories into algebraic categories %J - %D 1993 %R DOI Code: 10.1285/i15900932v13n2p283 %X We show that the fundamental relationship between relational systems and universal algebras, i. e. the relationship that universal algebras are special cases of relational systems,is valid also conversely: relational systems can be considered as specia universal algebras.This result is formulated on the category theoretical level - for relational systems we def¨Źne a special type of homomorphisms with respect to which relational categories can be embedded into algebraic categories %U http://siba-ese.unisalento.it/index.php/notemat/article/view/1035
