A Ternary Operation in Distributive Lattices

نویسنده

  • GARRETT BIRKHOFF
چکیده

I t can be easily seen that the graph [l , p. 9 ] , 1 of the Boolean algebra B of 2 elements (consisting of the vertices and edges of an n-cube) has 2(n\) "link-automorphisms," whereas B has only (n\) lattice-automorphisms. In an unpublished book, one of us has developed new operations in B and other distributive lattices, which admit such a wider group of invariance. The purpose of this note is to show the role of the symmetric and self-dual ternary operation [ l . p . 7 4 ]

Distributive lattices with strong endomorphism kernel property as direct sums

Unbounded distributive lattices which have strong endomorphism kernel property (SEKP) introduced by Blyth and Silva in [3] were fully characterized in [11] using Priestley duality (see Theorem  2.8}). We shall determine the structure of special elements (which are introduced after  Theorem 2.8 under the name strong elements) and show that these lattices can be considered as a direct product of ...

FUZZY ORDERED SETS AND DUALITY FOR FINITE FUZZY DISTRIBUTIVE LATTICES

The starting point of this paper is given by Priestley’s papers, where a theory of representation of distributive lattices is presented. The purpose of this paper is to develop a representation theory of fuzzy distributive lattices in the finite case. In this way, some results of Priestley’s papers are extended. In the main theorem, we show that the category of finite fuzzy Priestley space...

Distributive Lattices of λ-simple Semirings

In this paper, we study the decomposition of semirings with a semilattice additive reduct. For, we introduce the notion of principal left $k$-radicals $Lambda(a)={x in S | a stackrel{l}{longrightarrow^{infty}} x}$ induced by the transitive closure $stackrel{l}{longrightarrow^{infty}}$ of the relation $stackrel{l}{longrightarrow}$ which induce the equivalence relation $lambda$. Again non-transit...

A Note on the Set-Theoretic Representation of Arbitrary Lattices

Every lattice is isomorphic to a lattice whose elements are sets of sets and whose operations are intersection and the operation ∨∗ defined by A ∨∗ B = A ∪ B ∪ {Z : (∃X ∈ A)(∃Y ∈ B)X ∩ Y ⊆ Z}. This representation spells out precisely Birkhoff’s and Frink’s representation of arbitrary lattices, which is related to Stone’s set-theoretic representation of distributive lattices. (AMS Subject Classi...

Topological Duality and Lattice Expansions Part II: Lattice Expansions with Quasioperators

Lattices have many applications in mathematics and logic, in which they occur together with additional operations. For example, in applications of Hilbert spaces, one is often concerned with the lattice of closed subspaces of a fixed space. This lattice is not distributive, but there is an operation taking a given subspace to its orthogonal subspace. More generally, ortholattices are lattices w...
