This work discusses the problem of Arens regularity of a lattice-ordered ring. In this prospect, a counterexample is furnished to show that without extra conditions, a lattice-ordered ring need not be Arens regular. However, as shown in this paper, it turns out that any -ring in the sense of Birkhoff and Pierce is Arens regular. This result is then used and extended to the more general setting of almost -rings introduced again by Birkhoff.
We show some families of lattice effect algebras (a common generalization of orthomodular lattices and MV-effect algebras) each element E of which has atomic center C(E) or the subset S(E) of all sharp elements, resp. the center of compatibility B(E) or every block M of E. The atomicity of E or its sub-lattice effect algebras C(E), S(E), B(E) and blocks M of E is very useful equipment for the investigations of its algebraic and topological properties, the existence or smearing of states on E, questions...
In the present paper we deal with the relations between direct product decompositions of a directed set and direct product decompositions of intervals of .
There are several special kinds of radical classes. For example, a product radical class is closed under forming product, a closed-kernel radical class is closed under taking order closures, a -radical class is closed under taking -isomorphic images, a polar kernel radical class is closed under taking double polars, etc. The set of all radical classes of the same kind is a complete lattice. In this paper we discuss atoms in these lattices. We prove that every nontrivial element in these lattices...
