We apply Preuss' concept of $mbbe$-connectedness to the categories of lattice-valued uniform convergence spaces and of lattice-valued uniform spaces. A space is uniformly $mbbe$-connected if the only uniformly continuous mappings from the space to a space in the class $mbbe$ are the constant mappings. We develop the basic theory for $mbbe$-connected sets, including the product theorem. Furtherm...

Abstract. Let L be a lattice and M a bounded distributive lattice. Let ConL denote the congruence lattice of L, P (M) the Priestley dual space of M , and L (M) the lattice of continuous order-preserving maps from P (M) to L with the discrete topology. It is shown that Con(L ) ∼= (ConL) P (ConM) Λ , the lattice of continuous order-preserving maps from P (ConM) to ConL with the Lawson topology. V...

A lattice L is spatial if every element of L is a join of completely join-irreducible elements of L (points), and strongly spatial if it is spatial and the minimal coverings of completely join-irreducible elements are well-behaved. Herrmann, Pickering, and Roddy proved in 1994 that every modular lattice can be embedded, within its variety, into an algebraic and spatial lattice. We extend this r...

In this paper we introduce the notion of Boolean filters in a pseudo-complemented distributive lattice and characterize the class of all Boolean filters. Further a set of equivalent conditions are derived for a proper filter to become a prime Boolean filter. Also a set of equivalent conditions is derived for a pseudo-complemented distributive lattice to become a Boolean algebra. Finally, a Bool...

We prove that every finite distributive lattice D can be represented as the congruence lattice of a rectangular lattice K in which all congruences are principal. We verify this result in a stronger form as an extension theorem.

In his paper (1942), Ore found necessary and sufficient conditions under which the modular and distributive laws hold in the lattice of equivalence relations on a set S. In the present paper, we consider commuting equivalence relations. It has been proved by J6nsson (1953) that the modular law holds in the lattice of commuting equivalence relations. We give some necessary and sufficient conditi...

We describe a part of the lattice of subvarieties of left distributive left idempotent groupoids (i.e. those satisfying the identities x(yz) ≈ (xy)(xz) and (xx)y ≈ xy) modulo the lattice of subvarieties of left distributive idempotent groupoids. A free groupoid in a subvariety of LDLI groupoids satisfying an identity x ≈ x decomposes as the direct product of its largest idempotent factor and a ...

A semiring variety is d-semisimple if it is generated by the distributive lattice of order two and a finite number of finite fields. A d-semisimple variety V = HSP{B2, F1, . . . , Fk} plays the main role in this paper. It will be proved that it is finitely based, and that, up to isomorphism, the two-element distributive lattice B2 and all subfields of F1, . . . , Fk are the only subdirectly irr...
