The structure of completely meet irreducible congruences in strongly Fregean algebras

Abstract

A strongly Fregean algebra is an algebra such that the class of its homomorphic images is Fregean and the variety generated by this algebra is congruence modular. To understand the structure of these algebras we study the prime intervals projectivity relation in the posets of their completely meet irreducible congruences and show that its cosets have the natural structure of a Boolean group. In particular, this approach allows us to represent congruences and elements of such algebras as the subsets of upward closed subsets of these posets with some special properties.
