We show that the variety of residuated lattices does not have the amalgamation property, thereby settling a long-standing open problem. In addition, we show that the amalgamation property fails for several subvarieties, including idempotent…
We introduce the blockwise gluing construction. This describes residuated integral chains which can be decomposed into (possibly) partial algebras, stacked one on top of the other, and such that elements in a certain component multiply in…
We survey the state of the art on amalgamation in varieties of semilinear residuated lattices. Our discussion emphasizes two prominent cases from which much insight into the general picture may be gleaned: idempotent varieties and their…
In this paper we study structural properties of residuated lattices that are idempotent as monoids. We provide descriptions of the totally ordered members of this class and obtain counting theorems for the number of finite algebras in…
We characterize commutative idempotent involutive residuated lattices as disjoint unions of Boolean algebras arranged over a distributive lattice. We use this description to introduce a new construction, called gluing, that allows us to…
The superamalgamation property is a strong form of the amalgamation property which applies to ordered structures; it has found many applications in algebraic logic. We show that superamalgamation has some interest also from the pure…
We prove that the category of ordered abelian groups equipped with an automorphism has the Amalgamation Property, deduce that their inductive theory is NIP in the sense of positive logic, and initiate a development of the latter framework.…
We present a family of local involutive integral bounded residuated lattice-ordered commutative monoids (involutive residuated lattices, for short) having Boolean term, radical term (see \cite{CT12} and \cite{T23}), and satisfying GAP…
It was proved by Maksimova in 1977 that exactly eight varieties of Heyting algebras have the amalgamation property, and hence exactly eight axiomatic extensions of intuitionistic propositional logic have the deductive interpolation…
The class of linearly ordered sets with one order preserving unary operation has the Strong Amalgamation Property (SAP). The class of linearly ordered sets with one strict order preserving unary operation has AP but not SAP. The class of…
The class of finite distributive lattices, as many other classes of structures, does not have the Ramsey property. It is quite common, though, that after expanding the structures with appropriately chosen linear orders the resulting class…
Divisible residuated lattices are algebraic structures corresponding to a more comprehensive logic than Hajek's basic logic with an important significance in the study of fuzzy logic. The purpose of this paper is to investigate commutative…
Gautama algebras were introduced recently, as a common generalization of regular double Stone algebras and regular Kleene Stone algebras. Even more recently, Gautama algebras were further generalized to Almost Gautama algebras (AG for…
We present several examples of hereditary classes of finite structures satisfying the joint embedding property and the weak amalgamation property, but failing the cofinal amalgamation property. These include a continuum-sized family of…
In this paper we give equational presentations of the varieties of {\em integral bounded residuated lattice-ordered commutative monoids} (bounded residuated lattices for short) satisfying the \emph{General Apple Property} (GAP), that is,…
We prove a representation theorem for totally ordered idempotent monoids via a nested sum construction. Using this representation theorem we obtain a characterization of the subdirectly irreducible members of the variety of semilinear…
It is known that every relatively pseudocomplemented lattice is residuated and, moreover, it is distributive. Unfortunately, non-distributive lattices with a unary operation satisfying properties similar to relative pseudocomplementation…
Semiconic idempotent logic sCI is a common generalization of intuitionistic logic, semilinear idempotent logic sLI, and in particular relevance logic with mingle. We establish the projective Beth definability property and the deductive…
In this paper we introduce and study a variety of algebras that properly includes integral distributive commutative residuated lattices and weak Heyting algebras. Our main goal is to give a characterization of the principal congruences in…
The Lifting Idempotent Property ($LIP$) of ideals in commutative rings inspired the study of Boolean lifting properties in the context of other concrete algebraic structures ($MV$-algebras, commutative l-groups, $BL$-algebras, bounded…
