We characterize the equational theories and Lawvere theories that correspond
to the categories of analytic and polynomial monads on Set, and hence also the
categories of the symmetric and rigid operads in Set. We show that the category
of analytic monads is equivalent to the category of regular-linear theories.
The category of polynomial monads is equivalent to the category of rigid
theories, i.e. regular-linear theories satisfying an additional global
condition. This solves a problem A. Carboni and P. T. Johnstone. The Lawvere
theories corresponding to these monads are identified via some factorization
systems.Comment: 29 pages. v2: minor correction
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
