Ockham Algebra

From Handwiki

In mathematics, an Ockham algebra is a bounded distributive lattice with a dual endomorphism, that is, an operation ~ satisfying ~(xy) = ~x ∨ ~y, ~(xy) = ~x ∧ ~y, ~0 = 1, ~1 = 0. They were introduced by (Berman 1977), and were named after William of Ockham by (Urquhart 1979). Ockham algebras form a variety. Examples of Ockham algebras include Boolean algebras, De Morgan algebras, Kleene algebras, and Stone algebras.
