Abstract

We prove that in a locally finite variety with the congruence extension property, locally solvable congruences are central and locally solvable algebras are Hamiltonian. Also, we prove that a maximal subuniverse of a finite algebra in an Abelian variety is identical with an equivalence class of some congruence.
