Dualisability of \(p\)-semilattices (Q5950752)

An algebra \(\underline M\) is inherently non-dualisable if each finite algebra \(\underline N\), such that \({\underline M} \in \mathbb I\mathbb S\mathbb P \underline N\), is non-dualisable. It was already shown by D. M. Clark that every finite subdirectly irreducible pseudocomplemented semilattice is non-dualisable. The authors generalize this result by using of the so-called ghost element proof to obtain: Theorem. Every finite non-Boolean pseudocomplemented semilattice is inherently non-dualisable.
