Algebra and Logic Aims and scope

Abstract

Algebras with certain operations of Tarski relation algebras are studied. Such are called reducts of Tarski relation algebras. We discuss the problems of obtaining an axiomatic description of classes of reducts of Tarski relation algebras with the set of operations {o, ∩}⊂Ω⊂{o, ∩,∪, ø, U} and of providing a characterization of varieties and quasivarieties generated by them.
