From the partial order point of view, we treat Hasse diagrammes, complete lattices, Brouwerian lattices . From the algebraic point of view, we treat the homomorphism theorems, special classes such as modular, distributive, and Boolean algebras as well as the representation theory for finite lattices and its relation to classical propositional logic. |
