Let n > 2. A weakly representable relation algebra that is not strongly representable is constructed. It is proved that the set of all n by n basic matrices forms a cylindric basis that is also a weakly but not a strongly representable atom structure. This gives an example of a binary generated atomic representable cylindric algebra with no complete representation. An application to first order logic is given. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
