Abstract

This paper presents a monotonic system of Post algebras of order ω+ω* whose chain of Post constans is isomorphic with 0≤1≤2≤ ... ≤-3≤-2≤-1. Besides monotonic operations, other unary operations are considered; namely, disjoint operations, the quasi-complement, succesor, and predecessor operations. The successor and predecessor operations are basic for number theory.
