Abstract :
[en] The following natural problem, first considered by D. Lau, has been tackled by several authors recently: Let C be a total clone on 2 := {0, 1}. Describe the interval I(C) of all partial clones on 2 whose total component is C. We establish some results in this direction and combine them with previous ones to show the following dichotomy result: For every total clone C on 2, the set I(C) is either finite or of continuum cardinality.
