In Section 2 replace the definition of ∗◦Q in Definition 1 by x∗◦Q y = inf{u ∗◦ v | u > x, v > y}. It is defined only if the infimum exists. Proposition 1 remains unchanged. Theorem 0. Let (X, ∗◦,→∗◦,≤) be a commutative residuated semigroup on a complete chain equipped with the order topology. Let a, b, c ∈ X be such that a = b→∗◦ c. Let (x, y) ∈ X × X be such that 1. neither x nor y equals the...

In the first part, we extend our results from a previous paper on factorization of residuated lattices to residuated lattices with hedges. In the second part, we show how this result can be applied to the problem of factorization of fuzzy concept lattices with hedges. Our approach is that instead of factorizing the original concept lattice with hedges we construct a new data table with fuzzy va...

The finite embeddability property (FEP) for integral, commutative residuated ordered monoids was established by W. J. Blok and C. J. van Alten in 2002. Using Higman’s finite basis theorem for divisibility orders we prove that the assumptions of commutativity and associativity are not required: the classes of integral residuated ordered monoids and integral residuated ordered groupoids have the ...

We consider the fuzzy logic ALCI with semantics based on a finite residuated lattice. We show that the problems of satisfiability and subsumption of concepts in this logic are ExpTime-complete w.r.t. general TBoxes and PSpace-complete w.r.t. acyclic TBoxes. This matches the known complexity bounds for reasoning in crisp ALCI.

Lattice-valued semiuniform convergence structures are important mathematical in the theory of lattice-valued topology. Choosing a complete residuated lattice $L$ as background, we introduce new type filters using tensor and implication operations on $L$, which is called $\top$-filters. By means $\top$-filters, propose concept $\top$-semiuniform counterpart structures. Different from usual discu...

Stonean residuated lattices are closely related to Stone algebras since the bounded lattice reduct of a distributive Stonean residuated lattice is a Stone algebra. In the present work we follow the ideas presented by Chen and Grätzer and try to apply them for the case of Stonean residuated lattices. Given a Stonean residuated lattice, we consider the triple formed by its Boolean skeleton, its a...

We solve several open problems on the cardinality of atoms in the subvariety lattice of residuated lattices and FL-algebras [4, Problems 17–19, pp. 437]. Namely, we prove that the subvariety lattice of residuated lattices contains continuum many 4-potent commutative representable atoms. Analogous results apply also to atoms in the subvariety lattice of FLi-algebras and FLo-algebras. On the othe...

In this paper we study the dense elements and the radical of a residuated lattice, residuated lattices with lifting Boolean center, simple, local, semilocal and quasi-local residuated lattices. BL-algebras have lifting Boolean center; moreover, Glivenko residuated lattices which fulfill the equation (¬ a → ¬ b) → ¬ b = (¬ b → ¬ a) → ¬ a have lifting Boolean center.

In this paper we investigate the atomic level in the lattice of subvarieties of residuated lattices. In particular, we give infinitely many commutative atoms and construct continuum many non-commutative, representable atoms that satisfy the idempotent law; this answers Problem 8.6 of [12]. Moreover, we show that there are only two commutative idempotent atoms and only two cancellative atoms. Fi...

In 1998, Hájek established a representation theorem of BL-algebrs as all subdirect products of linear BL-algebrs. We establish a similar result for the much wider class of prelinear residuated algebras, in which neither the lattice structure nor the divisibility of the monoid operation is assumed. We show, in the case of prelinear residuated lattices, that this order embedding becomes a lattice...
