Book synopsis

Lattices and Ordered Algebraic Structures provides a lucid and concise introduction to the basic results concerning the notion of an order. Although as a whole it is mainly intended for beginning postgraduates, the prerequisities are minimal and selected parts can profitably be used to broaden the horizon of the advanced undergraduate.§The treatment is modern, with a slant towards recent developments in the theory of residuated lattices and ordered regular semigroups. Topics covered include: residuated mappings; Galois connections; modular, distributive, and complemented lattices; Boolean algebras; pseudocomplemented lattices; Stone algebras; Heyting algebras; ordered groups; lattice-ordered groups; representable groups; Archimedean ordered structures; ordered semigroups; naturally ordered regular and inverse Dubreil-Jacotin semigroups.§Featuring material that has been hitherto available only in research articles, and an account of the range of applications of the theory, there are also many illustrative examples and numerous exercises throughout, making it ideal for use as a course text, or as a basic introduction to the field for researchers in mathematics, logic and computer science."The text can serve as an introduction to fundamentals in the respective areas from a residuated-maps perspective and with an eye on coordinatization. The historical notes that are interspersed are also worth mentioning. The exposition is thorough and all proofs that the reviewer checked were highly polished. Overall, the book is a well-done introduction from a distinct point of view and with exposure to the author s research expertise." --MATHEMATICAL REVIEWSLattices and Ordered Algebraic Structures provides a lucid and concise introduction to the basic results concerning the notion of an order.
