Completeness for Identity-free Kleene Lattices

We provide a finite set of axioms for identity-free Kleene lattices, which we prove sound and complete for the equational theory of their relational models. Our proof builds on the completeness theorem for Kleene algebra, and on a novel automata construction that makes it possible to extract axiomatic proofs using a Kleene-like algorithm

Admissibility via Natural Dualities

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 be characterized using natural dualities. In particular, axiomatizations are obtained for the admissible clauses and quasi-identities of bounded distributive lattices, Stone algebras, Kleene algebras and lattices, and De Morgan algebras and lattices.Comment: 22 pages; 3 figure

A Complete Axiomatisation of a Fragment of Language Algebra

We consider algebras of languages over the signature of reversible Kleene lattices, that is the regular operations (empty and unit languages, union, concatenation and Kleene star) together with intersection and mirror image. We provide a complete set of axioms for the equational theory of these algebras. This proof was developed in the proof assistant Coq

Admissibility in De Morgan algebras

Characterizations of admissible quasi-identities, which may be understood as quasi-identities holding in free algebras on countably infinitely many generators, are provided for classes of De Morgan algebras and lattice
