On ideal theory of hoops
In this paper, we define and characterize the notions of (implicative, maximal, prime) ideals in hoops. Then we investigate the relation between them and prove that every maximal implicative ideal of a -hoop with double negation property is a prime one. Also, we define a congruence relation on hoops by ideals and study the quotient that is made by it. This notion helps us to show that an ideal is maximal if and only if the quotient hoop is a simple MV-algebra. Also, we investigate the relationship...
