It is shown that admissible clauses and quasi-identities of quasivarieties generated by a single finite algebra, or equivalently, the quasiequational and universal theories of their free algebras on countably infinitely many generators, may…

We establish two duality theorems which refine the classical Stone duality between generalized Boolean algebras and locally compact Boolean spaces. In the first theorem we prove that the category of left-handed skew Boolean algebras whose…

We dualize a construction of Aguzzoli-Flaminio-Ugolini of a large class of MTL-algebras from ordered quadruples consisting of a Boolean algebra, a generalized MTL-algebra, and two maps parameterizing the connection between these pieces. Our…

We show how Stone duality can be extended from maps to relations. This is achieved by working order enriched and defining a relation from A to B as both an order-preserving function from the opposite of A times B to the 2-element chain and…

We connect the dual adjunction between MV-algebras and Tychonoff spaces with the general theory of natural dualities, and provide a number of applications. In doing so, we simplify the aforementioned construction by observing that there is…

A systematic theory of structural limits for finite models has been developed by Nesetril and Ossona de Mendez. It is based on the insight that the collection of finite structures can be embedded, via a map they call the Stone pairing, in a…

The authors developed in a recent paper natural dualities for finitely generated quasivarieties of Sugihara algebras. They thereby identified the admissibility algebras for these quasivarieties which, via the Test Spaces Method devised by…

We study representations of MV-algebras -- equivalently, unital lattice-ordered abelian groups -- through the lens of Stone-Priestley duality, using canonical extensions as an essential tool. Specifically, the theory of canonical extensions…

We apply Stone duality and model theory to study the structure theory of free pro-aperiodic monoids. Stone duality implies that elements of the free pro-aperiodic monoid may be viewed as elementary equivalence classes of pseudofinite words.…

We provide a new perspective on extended Priestley duality for a large class of distributive lattices equipped with binary double quasioperators. Under this approach, non-lattice binary operations are each presented as a pair of partial…

We extend Stone duality between generalized Boolean algebras and Boolean spaces, which are the zero-dimensional locally-compact Hausdorff spaces, to a non-commutative setting. We first show that the category of right-handed skew Boolean…

We study the notion of duality in the context of graded manifolds. For graded bundles, somehow like in the case of Gelfand representation and the duality: points vs. functions, we obtain natural dual objects which belongs to a different…

We develop dualities for complete perfect distributive quasi relation algebras and complete perfect distributive involutive FL-algebras. The duals are partially ordered frames with additional structure. These frames are analogous to the…

In the context of categorical topology, more precisely that of T-categories [Hofmann, 2007], we define the notion of T-colimit as a particular colimit in a V-category. A complete and cocomplete V-category in which limits distribute over…

An elementary theory of strict $\infty $-categories with application to concrete duality is given. All known famous dualities (Gelfand-Naimark, Pontryagin, Stone, etc.) are so-called natural. A criterion of existence of such a duality for…

We revisit the problem of Stone duality for lattices with various quasioperators, first studied in [14], presenting a fresh duality result. The new result is an improvement over that of [14] in two important respects. First, the…
