On connections between information systems, rough sets and algebraic logic

Stephen Comer (1993)

Banach Center Publications

In this note we remark upon some relationships between the ideas of an approximation space and rough sets due to Pawlak ([9] and [10]) and algebras related to the study of algebraic logic - namely, cylindric algebras, relation algebras, and Stone algebras. The paper consists of three separate observations. The first deals with the family of approximation spaces induced by the indiscernability relation for different sets of attributes of an information system. In [3] the family of closure operators...

Polyadic algebras over nonclassical logics

Don Pigozzi, Antonino Salibra (1993)

Banach Center Publications

The polyadic algebras that arise from the algebraization of the first-order extensions of a SIC are characterized and a representation theorem is proved. Standard implicational calculi (SIC)'s were considered by H. Rasiowa [19] and include classical and intuitionistic logic and their various weakenings and fragments, the many-valued logics of Post and Łukasiewicz, modal logics that admit the rule of necessitation, BCK logic, etc.

Strong completeness of the Lambek Calculus with respect to Relational Semantics

Szabolcs Mikulás (1993)

Banach Center Publications

In [vB88], Johan van Benthem introduces Relational Semantics (RelSem for short), and states Soundness Theorem for Lambek Calculus (LC) w.r.t. RelSem. After doing this, he writes: "it would be very interesting to have the converse too", i.e., to have Completeness Theorem. The same question is in [vB91, p. 235]. In the following, we state Strong Completeness Theorems for different versions of LC.

The class of 2-dimensional neat reducts is not elementary

Tarek Sayed Ahmed (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

SC, CA, QA and QEA stand for the classes of Pinter's substitution algebras, Tarski's cylindric algebras, Halmos' quasipolyadic algebras and Halmos' quasipolyadic algebras with equality, respectively. Generalizing a result of Andréka and Németi on cylindric algebras, we show that for K ∈ SC,QA,CA,QEA and any β > 2 the class of 2-dimensional neat reducts of β-dimensional algebras in K is not closed under forming elementary subalgebras, hence is not elementary. Whether this result extends to higher...

Weak products of universal algebras

Ildikó Sain (1993)

Banach Center Publications

Weak direct products of arbitrary universal algebras are introduced. The usual notion for groups and rings is a special case. Some universal algebraic properties are proved and applications to cylindric and polyadic algebras are considered.
