TY - JOUR T1 - Dominions and closed varieties of bands AU - Ashraf, Wajih AU - Abbas, Shabnam AU - Khan, Noor Mohammad PY - 2024 DA - April DO - 10.15672/hujms.1217130 JF - Hacettepe Journal of Mathematics and Statistics PB - Hacettepe University WT - DergiPark SN - 2651-477X SP - 382 EP - 391 VL - 53 IS - 2 LA - en AB - We show that all subvarieties of the variety of rectangular bands are closed in the variety of $n$-nilpotent extension of bands. Ahanger, Nabi and Shah in [1] have proved that the variety of regular bands is closed. In this paper, we improve this result and provide its simple and shorter proof. Finally, we show that all subvarieties of the variety of normal bands are closed in the variety of left [right] semiregular bands.
