چکیده
We study finitely generated Heyting algebras from algebraic and model theoretic points of view. We prove amon others that finitely generated free Heyting algebras embed in their profinite completions, which are projective limits of finitely generated free Heyting algebras of finite dimension.

Locally finite varieties of Heyting algebras
We show that for a variety V of Heyting algebras the following conditions are equivalent: (1) V is locally finite; (2) the V-coproduct of any two finite V-algebras is finite; (3) either V coincides with the variety of Boolean algebras or finite V-copowers of the three element chain 3 ∈ V are finite. We also show that a variety V of Heyting algebras is generated by its finite members if, and onl...
متن کاملFree Heyting Algebras: Revisited
We use coalgebraic methods to describe finitely generated free Heyting algebras. Heyting algebras are axiomatized by rank 0-1 axioms. In the process of constructing free Heyting algebras we first apply existing methods to weak Heyting algebras—the rank 1 reducts of Heyting algebras—and then adjust them to the mixed rank 0-1 axioms. On the negative side, our work shows that one cannot use arbitr...
متن کاملProfinite Completions and Canonical Extensions of Heyting Algebras
We show that the profinite completions and canonical extensions of bounded distributive lattices and of Boolean algebras coincide. We characterize dual spaces of canonical extensions of bounded distributive lattices and of Heyting algebras in terms of Nachbin order-compactifications. We give the dual description of the profinite completion ̂ H of a Heyting algebra H, and characterize the dual sp...
متن کاملDually quasi-De Morgan Stone semi-Heyting algebras II. Regularity
This paper is the second of a two part series. In this Part, we prove, using the description of simples obtained in Part I, that the variety $mathbf{RDQDStSH_1}$ of regular dually quasi-De Morgan Stone semi-Heyting algebras of level 1 is the join of the variety generated by the twenty 3-element $mathbf{RDQDStSH_1}$-chains and the variety of dually quasi-De Morgan Boolean semi-Heyting algebras--...
متن کاملOptimal natural dualities for varieties of Heyting algebras
The techniques of natural duality theory are applied to certain finitely generated varieties of Heyting algebras to obtain optimal dualities for these varieties, and thereby to address algebraic questions about them. In particular, a complete characterisation is given of the endodualisable finite subdirectly irreducible Heyting algebras. The procedures involved rely heavily on Priestley duality...
