Čuda, K.; Kussová, B. Monads in basic equivalences. (English) Zbl 0531.03032 Commentat. Math. Univ. Carol. 24, 437-452 (1983). Summary: In this paper we prove that all sets from the universe of sets can be defined from both any arbitrary proper \(Sd_ V\) class and a suitable monad in any equivalence of indiscernibility. We also show that there is a monad \(\mu\) such that \(Def_{\mu}\neq V\). These facts are further used for proving some interesting assertions concerning similarities; e.g. it is shown here that some special cases of similarities have to be parts of identity.
