Factor congruences in BCK-algebras
In this paper, we characterize factor congruences in the quasivariety of BCK-algebras. As an application we prove that the free algebra over an infinite set of generators is indecomposable in any subvariety of BCK-algebras. We also study the decomposability of free algebras in the variety of hoop re...

| Sumario: | In this paper, we characterize factor congruences in the quasivariety of BCK-algebras. As an application we prove that the free algebra over an infinite set of generators is indecomposable in any subvariety of BCK-algebras. We also study the decomposability of free algebras in the variety of hoop residuation algebras (HBCK) and its subvarieties. We prove that free algebras in a non k-potent subvariety of HBCK are indecomposable while finitely generated free algebras in k-potent subvarieties have a unique non-trivial decomposition into a direct product of two factors, and one of them is the two-element implication algebra. |
