Abstract: | An algebra A is said to be a congruence-preserving extension of a subalgebra B if the mapping from the congruence lattice of B to that of A, assigning to each congruence relation β on B the minimal congruence relation on A containing β, is an isomorphism. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the congruence lattice of a subdirect product
B of finitely many algebras in a congruence-distributive variety that the full direct product be a congruence-preserving extension
of B. We give several applications to congruence lattices of lattices.
