Abstract

We introduce the concepts of an annihilator and a relative annihilator of a given subset of a BCK-algebra \(\mathcal{A}\). We prove that annihilators of deductive systems of BCK-algebras are again deductive systems and moreover pseudocomplements in the lattice \({\mathcal{D}\left( \mathcal{A} \right)}\) of all deductive systems on \(\mathcal{A}\). Moreover, relative annihilators of \({C \in \mathcal{D}\left( \mathcal{A} \right)}\) with respect to \({B\;{\text{in}}\;\mathcal{D}\left( \mathcal{A} \right)}\) are introduced and serve as relative pseudocomplements of C w.r.t. B in \({\mathcal{D}\left( \mathcal{A} \right)}\).
