Abstract

MV-algebras are bounded commutative integral residuated lattices satisfying the double negation and the divisibility laws. Basic algebras were introduced as a certain generalization of MV-algebras (where associativity and commutativity of the binary operation is neglected). Hence, there is a natural question if also basic algebras can be considered as residuated lattices. We prove that for commutative basic algebras it is the case and for non-commutative ones we involve a modified adjointness condition which gives rise a new generalization of a residuated lattice.
