Abstract
In this article, we deal with partial orders induced by the smallest and greatest nullnorms on bounded lattices, respectively. We first obtain the conditions for the partial orders induced by the smallest and greatest nullnorms to be a lattice, respectively. Then, we completely characterize the distributivity of the partial orders induced by the smallest and greatest nullnorms, respectively.
