Relatively pseudocomplemented posets

Ivan Chajda, Helmut Länger (2018)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We extend the notion of a relatively pseudocomplemented meet-semilattice to arbitrary posets. We show some properties of the binary operation of relative pseudocomplementation and provide some corresponding characterizations. We show that relatively pseudocomplemented posets satisfying a certain simple identity in two variables are join-semilattices. Finally, we show that every relatively pseudocomplemented poset is distributive and that the converse holds for posets satisfying the ascending...

On JP-semilattices of Begum and Noor

Jānis Cīrulis (2013)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

In recent papers, S. N. Begum and A. S. A. Noor have studied join partial semilattices (JP-semilattices) defined as meet semilattices with an additional partial operation (join) satisfying certain axioms. We show why their axiom system is too weak to be a satisfactory basis for the authors' constructions and proofs, and suggest an additional axiom for these algebras. We also briefly compare axioms of JP-semilattices with those of nearlattices, another kind of meet semilattices with a...

On unique factorization semilattices

Pedro V. Silva (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

The class of unique factorization semilattices (UFSs) contains important examples of semilattices such as free semilattices and the semilattices of idempotents of free inverse monoids. Their structural properties allow an efficient study, among other things, of their principal ideals. A general construction of UFSs from arbitrary posets is presented and some categorical properties are derived. The problem of embedding arbitrary semilattices into UFSs is considered and complete characterizations...
