✦ Synopsis

We investigate internal groupoids and pseudogroupoids in varieties of universal algebras, and we give a new description of internal groupoids in congruence modular varieties. We then prove that in any congruence modular variety an algebraically central extension is categorically central. The converse implication being already known, it follows that there is a perfect agreement between these two notions in any congruence modular variety. This theorem extends various partial results in this direction proved, so far, for -groups, for Maltsev varieties and for semi-abelian categories.

We characterize the universal central extension of a perfect precrossed module giving two descriptions, one in terms of non-abelian tensor products of groups and other in terms of projective presentations. As application to relative algebraic K-theory, we obtain that Milnor's absolute and relative K
