Includes bibliographical references (p. 143-146) and indexes. Background -- Boolean algebras that are scaled with respect to a poset -- The condensate lifting lemma (CLL) -- Getting larders from congruence lattices of first-order structures -- congruence-permutable, congruence-preserving extensions of lattices -- Larders from Von Neumann regular rings -- Discussion. "This work introduces tools from the field of category theory that make it possible to tackle a number of representation problems that have remained unsolvable to date (e.g. the determination of the range of a given functor). The basic idea is:if a functor lifts many objects, then it also lifts many (poset-indexed) diagrams." --P. [4] of cover. |
