چکیده

The objective of this paper is to uncover the structure of the back-andforth equivalence classes at the finite levels for the class of Boolean algebras. As an application, we obtain bounds on the computational complexity of determining the back-and-forth equivalence classes of a Boolean algebra for finite levels. This result has implications for characterizing the relatively intrinsically Σn relations of Boolean algebras as existential formulas over a finite set of relations.

March 4, 2010 ISOMORPHISM TYPES OF BOOLEAN ALGEBRAS IN THE BACK-AND-FORTH HIERARCHY

We investigate the back-and-forth types which isomorphism types. The main result is that the indecomposable isomorphism types which arise at the finite levels of the back-and-forth hierarchy are the same the finitary isomorphism types in Heindorff.

Filter theory in MTL-algebras based on Uni-soft property

‎The notion of (Boolean) uni-soft filters‎ ‎in MTL-algebras is introduced‎, ‎and several properties of them are‎ ‎investigated‎. ‎Characterizations of (Boolean) uni-soft filters are discussed‎, ‎and some (necessary and sufficient) conditions‎ ‎for a uni-soft filter to be Boolean are provided‎. ‎The condensational property for a Boolean uni-soft filter is established.

On some classes of expansions of ideals in $MV$-algebras

In this paper, we introduce the notions of expansion of ideals in $MV$-algebras, $ (tau,sigma)- $primary, $ (tau,sigma)$-obstinate  and $ (tau,sigma)$-Boolean  in $ MV- $algebras. We investigate the relations of them. For example, we show that every $ (tau,sigma)$-obstinate ideal of an $ MV-$ algebra is $ (tau,sigma)$-primary  and $ (tau,sigma)$-Boolean. In particular, we define an expansion $ ...

Semi-G-filters, Stonean filters, MTL-filters, divisible filters, BL-filters and regular filters in residuated lattices

At present, the filter theory of $BL$textit{-}algebras has been widelystudied, and some important results have been published (see for examplecite{4}, cite{5}, cite{xi}, cite{6}, cite{7}). In other works such ascite{BP}, cite{vii}, cite{xiii}, cite{xvi} a study of a filter theory inthe more general setting of residuated lattices is done, generalizing thatfor $BL$textit{-}algebras. Note that fil...

Dually quasi-De Morgan Stone semi-Heyting algebras II. Regularity

This paper is the second of a two part series. In this Part, we prove, using the description of simples obtained in Part I, that the variety $mathbf{RDQDStSH_1}$ of regular dually quasi-De Morgan Stone semi-Heyting algebras of level 1 is the join of the variety generated by the twenty 3-element $mathbf{RDQDStSH_1}$-chains and the variety of dually quasi-De Morgan Boolean semi-Heyting algebras--...
