Residuated operators and Dedekind-MacNeille completion

The concept of operator residuation for bounded posets with unary operation was introduced by the first two authors. It turns out that in some cases when these operators are transformed into lattice terms and the poset ${\mathbf P}$ is completed into a Dedekind-MacNeille completion $\BDM(\mathbf P)$ then the complete lattice $\BDM(\mathbf P)$ becomes a residuated lattice with respect to these transformed terms. It is shown that this holds in particular for Boolean posets and for relatively pseudocomplemented posets. More complicated situation is with orthomodular and pseudo-orthomodular posets. We show which operators $M$ (multiplication) and $R$ (residuation) yield operator left-residuation in a pseudo-orthomodular poset ${\mathbf P}$ and if $\BDM(\mathbf P)$ is an orthomodular lattice then the transformed lattice terms $\odot$ and $\to$ form a left residuation in $\BDM(\mathbf P)$. However, it is a problem to determine when $\BDM(\mathbf P)$ is an orthomodular lattice. We get some classes of pseudo-orthomodular posets for which their Dedekind-MacNeille completion is an orthomodular lattice and we introduce the so called strongly $D$-continuous pseudo-orthomodular posets. Finally we prove that,for a pseudo-orthomodular poset ${\mathbf P}$, the Dedekind-MacNeille completion $\BDM(\mathbf P)$ is an orthomodular lattice if and only if ${\mathbf P}$ is strongly $D$-continuous.

Involutive right-residuated l-groupoids

A common generalization of orthomodular lattices and residuated lattices is provided corresponding to bounded lattices with an involution and sectionally extensive mappings. It turns out that such a generalization can be based on integral right-residuated l-groupoids. This general framework is applied to MV-algebras,orthomodular lattices, Nelson algebras, basic algebras and Heyting algebras.

Orthogonal relational systems

In this paper we discuss the concept of relational system with involution. This system is called orthogonal if, for every pair of non-zero orthogonal elements, there exists a supremal element in their upper cone and the upper cone of orthogonal elements $x,\,x'$ is a singleton (i.e. $x,\,x'$ are complements each other). To every orthogonal relational system can be assigned a groupoid with involution. The conditions under which a groupoid is assigned to an orthogonal relational systems are investigated. We will see that many properties of the relational system can be captured by the associated groupoid. Moreover, these structures enjoy several desirable algebraic features such as, e.g., a direct decomposition representation and the strong amalgamation property.

Representing quantum structures as near semirings

In this paper we introduce the notion of near semiring with involution. Generalizing the theory of semirings we aim at represent quantum structures, such as basic algebras and orthomodular lattices, in terms of near semirings with involution. In particular, after discussing several properties of near semirings, we introduce the so-called Łukasiewicz near semirings, as a particular case of near semirings, and we show that every basic algebra is representable as (precisely, it is term equivalent to) a near semiring. In the particular case in which a Łukasiewicz near semiring is also a semiring, we obtain as a corollary a representation of MV-algebras as semirings. Analogously, by introducing a particular subclass of Łukasiewicz near semirings, that we termed orthomodular near semirings, we obtain a representation of orthomodular lattices. In the second part of the paper, we discuss several universal algebraic properties of Łukasiewicz near semirings and we show that the variety of involutive integral near semirings is a Church variety. This yields a neat equational characterization of central elements of this variety. As a byproduct of such, we obtain several direct decomposition theorems for this class of algebras.

Residuated Relational Systems

The aim of the present paper is to generalize the concept of residuated poset, by replacing the usual partial ordering by a generic binary relation, giving rise to relational systems which are residuated. In particular, we modify the definition of adjointness in such a way that the ordering relation can be harmlessly replaced by a binary relation. By enriching such binary relation with additional properties we get interesting properties of residuated relational systems which are analogical to those of residuated posets and lattices.

Left residuated operators induced by posets with a unary operation

The concept of operator left residuation has been introduced by the authors in a previous paper. Modifications of so-called quantum structures, in particular orthomodular posets, like pseudo-orthomodular, pseudo-Boolean and Boolean posets are investigated here in order to show that they are operator left residuated or even operator residuated. In fact they satisfy more general sufficient conditions for operator residuation assumed for bounded posets equipped with a unary operation. It is shown that these conditions may be also necessary if a generalized version using subsets instead of single elements is considered. The above listed posets can serve as an algebraic semantics for the logic of quantum mechanics in a broad sense. Moreover, our approach shows connections to substructural logics via the considered residuation.

Set Representation of Dynamic De Morgan algebras

By a De Morgan algebra is meant a bounded poset equipped with an antitone involution considered as negation. Such an algebra can be considered as an algebraic axiomatization of a propositional logic satisfying the double negation law. Our aim is to introduce the so-called tense operators in every De Morgan algebra for to get an algebraic counterpart of a tense logic with negation satisfying the double negation law which need not be Boolean. Following the standard construction of tense operators $G$ and $H$ by a frame we solve the following question: if a dynamic De Morgan algebra is given, how to find a frame such that its tense operators $G$ and $H$ can be reached by this construction.

Residuation in non-associative MV-algebras

It is well known that every MV-algebra can be converted into a residuated lattice satisfying divisibility and the double negation law. In our previous papers we introduced the concept of an NMV-algebra which is a non-associative modification of an MV-algebra. The natural question arises if an NMV-algebra can be converted into a residuated structure, too. Contrary to MV-algebras, NMV-algebras are not based on lattices but only on directed posets and the binary operation need not be associative and hence we cannot expect to obtain a residuated lattice but only an essentially weaker structure called a conditionally residuated poset. Considering several additional natural conditions we show that every NMV-algebra can be converted in such a structure. Also conversely, every such structure can be organized into an NMV-algebra. Further, we study a bit more stronger version of an algebra where the binary operation is even monotonous. We show that such an algebra can be organized into a residuated poset and, conversely, every residuated poset can be converted in this structure.

Orthomodular lattices can be converted into left residuated l-groupoids

We show that every orthomodular lattice can be considered as a left residuated l-groupoid satisfying divisibility, antitony, the double negation law and three more additional conditions expressed in the language of residuated structures. Also conversely, every left residuated l-groupoid satisfying the mentioned conditions can be organized into an orthomodular lattice.

Residuated operators in complemented posets

Using the operators of taking upper and lower cones in a poset with a unary operation, we define operators M(x,y) and R(x,y) in the sense of multiplication and residuation, respectively, and we show that by using these operators, a general modification of residuation can be introduced. A relatively pseudocomplemented poset can be considered as a prototype of such an operator residuated poset. As main results we prove that every Boolean poset as well as every pseudo-orthomodular poset can be organized into a (left) operator residuated structure. Some results on pseudo-orthomodular posets are presented which show the analogy to orthomodular lattices and orthomodular posets.

On a variety of commutative multiplicatively idempotent semirings

We prove that the variety V of commutative multiplicatively idempotent semirings satisfying x + y + xyz = x + y is generated by single semirings. Moreover, we describe a normal form system for terms in V and we show that the word problem in V is solvable. Although V is locally finite, it is residually big.

Coupled right orthosemirings induced by orthomodular lattices

L. P. Belluce, A. Di Nola and B. Gerla established a connection between MV-algebras and (dually) lattice ordered semirings by means of so-called coupled semirings. A similar connection was found for basic algebras and semilattice ordered right near semirings by the authors. The aim of this paper is to derive an analogous connection for orthomodular lattices and certain semilattice ordered near semirings via so-called coupled right orthosemirings.

General coupled semirings of residuated lattices

Di Nola and Gerla showed that MV-algebras and coupled semirings are in a natural one-to-one correspondence. We generalize this correspondence to residuated lattices satisfying the double negation law.

When does a semiring become a residuated lattice?

It is an easy observation that every residuated lattice is in fact a semiring because multiplication distributes over join and the other axioms of a semiring are satisfied trivially. This semiring is commutative, idempotent and simple. The natural question arises if the converse assertion is also true. We show that the conversion is possible provided the given semiring is, moreover, completely distributive. We characterize semirings associated to complete residuated lattices satisfying the double negation law where the assumption of complete distributivity can be omitted. A similar result is obtained for idempotent residuated lattices.

Dynamic logic assigned to automata

A dynamic logic ${\mathbf B}$ can be assigned to every automaton ${\mathcal A}$ without regard if ${\mathcal A}$ is deterministic or nondeterministic. This logic enables us to formulate observations on ${\mathcal A}$ in the form of composed propositions and, due to a transition functor $T$, it captures the dynamic behaviour of ${\mathcal A}$. There are formulated conditions under which the automaton ${\mathcal A}$ can be recovered by means of ${\mathbf B}$ and $T$.

Galois connections and tense operators on q-effect algebras

For effect algebras, the so-called tense operators were already introduced by Chajda and Paseka. They presented also a canonical construction of them using the notion of a time frame. Tense operators express the quantifiers "it is always going to be the case that" and "it has always been the case that" and hence enable us to express the dimension of time both in the logic of quantum mechanics and in the many-valued logic. A crucial problem concerning tense operators is their representation. Having an effect algebra with tense operators, we can ask if there exists a time frame such that each of these operators can be obtained by the canonical construction. To approximate physical real systems as best as possible, we introduce the notion of a q-effect algebra and we solve this problem for q-tense operators on q-representable q-Jauch-Piron q-effect algebras.

A note on residuated po-groupoids and lattices with antitone involutions

Following [Botur, M., Chajda, I., Halaš, R.: Are basic algebras residuated structures?, Soft Comput. 14 (2010), 251-255] we discuss the connections between left-residuated partially ordered groupoids and the so-called basic algebras, which are a non-commutative and non-associative generalization of MV-algebras and orthomodular lattices.

Transition operators assigned to physical systems

By a physical system we recognize a set of propositions about a given system with their truth-values depending on the states of the system. Since every physical system can go from one state in another one, there exists a binary relation on the set of states describing this transition. Our aim is to assign to every such system an operator on the set of propositions which is fully determined by the mentioned relation. We establish conditions under which the given relation can be recovered by means of this transition operator.
