On the structure theory of Łukasiewicz near semirings
In a previous article by two of the present authors and S. Bonzio, Lukasiewicz near semirings were introduced and it was proven that basic algebras can be represented (precisely, are term equivalent to) as near semirings. In the same work it has been shown that the variety of Lukasiewicz near semirings is congruence regular. In other words, every congruence is uniquely determined by its 0-coset. Thus, it seems natural to wonder whether it could be possible to provide a set-theoretical characterization of these cosets. This article addresses this question and shows that kernels can be neatly described in terms of two simple conditions. As an application, we obtain a concise characterization of ideals in Lukasiewicz semirings. Finally, we close this article with a rather general Cantor-Bernstein type theorem for the variety of involutive idempotent integral near semirings
The generalized orthomodularity property: configurations and pastings
In this paper, we consider a generalization of the notion of orthomodularity for posets to the concept of the generalized orthomodularity property (GO-property) by considering the
-operators. This seemingly mild generalization of orthomodular posets and its order theoretical analysis yield rather strong application to effect algebras and orthomodular structures. Also, for several classes of orthoalgebras, the GO-property yields a completely order-theoretical characterization of the coherence law, and, in turn, of proper orthoalgebras
On residuation in paraorthomodular lattices
Paraorthomodular lattices are quantum structures of prominent importance within the framework of the logico-algebraic approach to (unsharp) quantum theory. However, at the present time it is not clear whether the above algebras may be regarded as the algebraic semantic of a logic in its own right. In this paper, we start the investigation of material implications in paraorthomodular lattices by showing that any bounded modular lattice with antitone involution A can be converted into a left-residuated groupoid if it satisfies a strengthened form of regularity. Moreover, the above condition turns out to be also necessary whenever A is distributive

A semiring-like representation of lattice pseudoeffect algebras
In order to represent lattice pseudoeffect algebras, a non-commutative generalization of lattice effect algebras, in terms of a particular subclass of near semirings, we introduce in this article the notion of near pseudoeffect semiring. Taking advantage of this characterization, in the second part of the present work, we present, as an application, an alternative, rather straight as well as simple, explanation of the relationship between lattice pseudoeffect algebras and pseudo-MV algebras by means of a simplified axiomatization of generalized ukasiewicz semirings, a variety of non-commutative semirings equipped with two antitone unary operations
A note on residuated po-groupoids and lattices with antitone involutions
Abstract
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.</jats:p
Properties of non-associative MV-algebras
Abstract
Non-associative MV-algebras (NMV-algebras) (A, ⊕, ¬, 0) were introduced in [CHAJDA, I.—KÜHR, J.: A non-associative generalization of MV-algebras, Math. Slovaca 57 (2007), 301–312]. In the present paper we prove some properties of these algebras, investigate when intervals of the form [a, 1] can be made into NMV-algebras in some natural way and consider idempotent elements and derivations of NMV-algebras. Moreover, we study decompositions of NMV-algebras and characterize the congruences on NMV-algebras by means of so-called filters.</jats:p
Algebraic properties of paraorthomodular posets
Paraorthomodular posets are bounded partially ordered sets with an antitone involution induced by quantum structures arising from the logico-algebraic approach to quantum mechanics. The aim of the present work is starting a systematic inquiry into paraorthomodular posets theory both from algebraic and order-theoretic perspectives. On the one hand, we show that paraorthomodular posets are amenable of an algebraic treatment by means of a smooth representation in terms of bounded directoids with antitone involution. On the other, we investigate their order-theoretical features in terms of forbidden configurations. Moreover, sufficient and necessary conditions characterizing bounded posets with an antitone involution whose Dedekind–MacNeille completion is paraorthomodular are provided
