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...

This paper studies some properties of the so-called semilattice-based logics (which are defined in a standard way using only the order relation from a variety of algebras that have a semilattice reduct with maximum) under the assumption that its companion assertional logic (defined from the same variety of algebras using the top element as representing truth) is algebraizable. This describes a ...

Munn’s construction of a fundamental inverse semigroup TE from a semilattice E provides an important tool in the study of inverse semigroups. We present here a semigroup FE that plays for a class of E-semiadequate semigroups the role that TE plays for inverse semigroups. Every inverse semigroup with semilattice of idempotents E is E-semiadequate. There are however many interesting E-semiadequat...

A quasi-implication algebra is introduced as an algebraic counterpart of an implication reduct of propositional logic having noninvolutory negation (e.g. intuitionistic logic). We show that every pseudocomplemented semilattice induces a quasi-implication algebra (but not conversely). On the other hand, a more general algebra, a so-called pseudocomplemented q-semilattice is introduced and a mutu...

In Huang and Weng (2004), Huang and Weng introduced pooling spaces, and constructed pooling designs from a pooling space. In this paper, we introduce the concept of pooling semilattices and prove that a pooling semilattice is a pooling space, then show how to construct pooling designs from a pooling semilattice. Moreover, we give many examples of pooling semilattices and thus obtain the corresp...

Part I proved that for every quasivariety K of structures (which may have both operations and relations) there is a semilattice S with operators such that the lattice of quasiequational theories of K (the dual of the lattice of sub-quasivarieties of K) is isomorphic to Con(S,+, 0,F). It is known that if S is a join semilattice with 0 (and no operators), then there is a quasivariety Q such that ...
