Relatively residuated lattices and posets (1901.06664v1)

Abstract: It is known that every relatively pseudocomplemented lattice is residuated and, moreover, it is distributive. Unfortunately, non-distributive lattices with a unary operation satisfying properties similar to relative pseudocomplementation cannot be converted in residuated ones. The aim of our paper is to introduce a more general concept of a relative residuated lattice in such a way that also non-modular sectionally pseudocomplemented lattices are included. We derive several properties of relative residuated lattices which are similar to those known for residuated ones and extend our results to posets.
