Mutual stochastic independences among-algebras and mutual algebraic inde-pendences among elements of semimodular lattices are observed to have a very similar behaviour. We suggest abstract independence structures called I-relations describing it. Presented examination of I-relations resembles a theory of abstract connectedness: a dual characterization of I-relations by families of connected set...
