Monadic Boolean algebras with an automorphism and their relation to Df2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\mathbf{Df}}_{\mathbf{2}}$$\end{document}-algebras

In this work, we initiate an investigation of the class BTkm\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\mathcal {B}}_{T_km}$$\end{document} of monadic Boolean algebras endowed with a monadic automorphism of period k. These algebras constitute a generalization of monadic symmetric Boolean algebras. We determine the congruences on these algebras and we characterize the subdirectly irreducible algebras. This last result allows us to prove that BTkm\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\mathcal {B}}_{T_km}$$\end{document} is a discriminator variety and as a consequence, the principal congruences are characterized. Finally, we explore, in the finite case, the relationship between this class and the class Df2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\mathbf{Df}}_{\mathbf{2}}$$\end{document} of diagonal-free two-dimensional cylindric algebras.
