In this paper, we consider the EKP (that is, endomorphism kernel property) for an extended Ockham algebra A. In particular, we describe the structure of the finite symmetric extended de Morgan algebras having EKP.展开更多

We characterize the structure of the lattice of congruences on such an algebra (L; f). We show that the lattice of compact congruences on L is a dual Stone lattice, and in particular, that the lattice Con L of congruences on L is boolean if and only if L is finite boolean. We also show that L is congruence coherent if and only if it is boolean. Finally, we give a sufficient and necessary condition to have the subdirectly irreducible chains.展开更多

In this note, we show that the compact congruences on a bpO-algebra form a dual Stone lattice. Using this, we characterize the algebras in which every principal congruence is complemented.

文摘An algebraic structure A is said to have the endomorphism kernel property if every congruence on A, other than the universal congruence, is the kernel of an endomorphism on A. In this paper, we consider the EKP (that is, endomorphism kernel property) for an extended Ockham algebra A. In particular, we describe the structure of the finite symmetric extended de Morgan algebras having EKP.
文摘Here we introduce a subclass of the class of Ockham algebras (L; f) for which L satisfies the property that for every x ∈ L, there exists n 〉 0 such that fn(x) and f^n+1(x) are complementary. We characterize the structure of the lattice of congruences on such an algebra (L; f). We show that the lattice of compact congruences on L is a dual Stone lattice, and in particular, that the lattice Con L of congruences on L is boolean if and only if L is finite boolean. We also show that L is congruence coherent if and only if it is boolean. Finally, we give a sufficient and necessary condition to have the subdirectly irreducible chains.
