The notion of Boolean algebras, and the corresponding classical propositional logic, is very standard, and it is easy to find information about them (for example, among many other such works, there is ...

There's a fair amount of work on valuations on (modular) lattices, by which I mean functions $v : \mathcal{L} \rightarrow R$ that satisfy the modular expression $$v(x) + v(y) = v(x \wedge y) + v(x \...

I want to study lattices as a structure related to ring theory. I am familiar with lattices as a beginner but I want to go further and know their connections to ring theory. Do you know a book which ...

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space. Let $\Lambda$ be a collection of subspaces of $V$ such that, if $X$ and $Y$ are in $\Lambda$, then $X\cap Y$ and $X+Y$ are in $\Lambda$. This makes $\...

In Gian-Carlo Rota's Indiscrete Thoughts, there a list of mathematical gossip among which one reads: [...] What would have happened [...] if Grothendieck had known the theory of distributive ...

If $B$ is a Boolean algebra (possibly assumed complete), is there a standard name for the Heyting algebra (or frame) $L := \Omega(S(B))$ of open sets on the Stone space $S(B)$ of $B$, — or for the ...
