A representation theorem for quantale valued sup-algebras
With this paper we hope to contribute to the theory of quantales and
quantale-like structures. It considers the notion of -sup-algebra and shows
a representation theorem for such structures generalizing the well-known
representation theorems for quantales and sup-algebras. In addition, we present
some important properties of the category of -sup-algebras.Comment: 6 page
Atoms of the lattices of residuated mappings
Given a lattice L, we denote by Res(L) the lattice of all residuated maps on L. The main objective of the paper is to study the atoms of Res(L) where L is a complete lattice. Note that the description of dual atoms of Res(L) easily follows from earlier results of Shmuely (1974). We first consider lattices L for which all atoms of Res(L) are mappings with 2-element range and give a sufficient condition for this. Extending this result, we characterize these atoms of Res(L) which are weakly regular residuated maps in the sense of Blyth and Janowitz (Residuation Theory, 1972). In the rest of the paper we investigate the atoms of Res(M) where M is the lattice of a finite projective plane, in particular, we describe the atoms of Res(F), where F is the lattice of the Fano plane
Representation Theorems for Quantales
In this paper we prove that any quantale Q is (isomorphic to) a quantale of suitable relations on Q. As a consequence two isomorphism theorems are also shown with suitable sets of functions of Q into Q. These theorems are the mathematical background one needs in order to give natural and complete semantics for (non-commutative) Linear Logic using relations
