Connections between quasi-projective relation algebras and cylindric algebras (Q997116): Difference between revisions

Quasi-projective relation algebras (\textbf{QRA}s) form a subclass of all relation algebras (\textbf{RA}s). The author proves that every quasi-projective relation algebra contains cylindric algebras (\textbf{CA}s) of all finite dimensions greater than two such that (i) they are term-definable in the \textbf{QRA}s, (ii) they have relation algebraic reduct that is isomorphic to the \textbf{QRA}s and (iii) these isomorphisms are also term-definable. Furthermore, these \textbf{CA}s form a sequence such that each of them is isomorphic to a neat reduct of the higher-dimensional ones, and these isomorphisms are also term-definable. These observations yield a new proof of the representation theorem of \textbf{QRA}s.
