The connection of skew Boolean algebras and discriminator varieties to Church algebras

We establish a connection between skew Boolean algebras and Church algebras. We prove that the set of all semicentral elements in a right Church algebra forms a right-handed skew Boolean algebra for the properly defined operations. The main result of this paper states that the variety of all semicentral right Church algebras of type τ\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\tau}$$\end{document} is term equivalent to the variety of right-handed skew Boolean algebras with additional regular operations. As a corollary to this result, we show that a pointed variety is a discriminator variety if and only if it is a 0-regular variety of right-handed skew Boolean algebras.
