CLONES CLOSED UNDER CONJUGATION I: CLONES WITH CONSTANTS
Abstract
We show that if G ≤ SA is a permutation group on a finite set A satisfying |A| ≥ 3, then the set of G-closed clones on A that contain all constant operations is finite iff G = SA, AA, AGL(1,5) (|A| = 5), PSL(2,5) (|A| = 6), PGL(2,5) (|A| = 6), PGL(2,7) (|A| = 8), PGL(2,8) (|A| = 9), or PΓL(2,8) (|A| = 9).
