We study exponentiability of homomorphisms in varieties of universal algebras close to classical ones. After describing an “almost folklore” general result, we present a purely algebraic proof of “étale implies exponentiable”, alternative to the topologically motivated proof given in one of our previous papers, in a different context. We prove that only isomorphisms are exponentiable homomorphisms in ideal determined varieties and extend this to ideal determined categories. Finally, we give a complete characterization of exponentiable homomorphisms of semimodules over semirings.
