ES Property ◮ Let K be a variety of algebras. Let ❆ , ❇ ∈ K and f : ❆ → ❇ a homomorphism. ◮ f is a K -epimorphism if, whenever ❈ ∈ K and g , h : ❇ → ❈ are homomorphisms such that g ◦ f = h ◦ f , then f = g . ◮ Note that if f is surjective, then f is a K -epimorphism. ◮ If all K -epimorphisms are surjective, then K has the epimorphism surjectivity (ES) property . ◮ ❆ is called a K -epic subalgebra of ❇ if the injection map i : ❆ → ❇ is a K -epimorphism. ◮ K has surjective epimorphisms iff there is no ❇ ∈ K with a proper K -epic subalgebra. ✓✏ ✓✏ ✓✏ g ✲ f ✲ ✲ ❆ ❇ ❈ ✒✑ ✒✑ ✒✑ h
Beth property If a variety K algebraizes a logic ⊢ , then K has the ES property iff ⊢ has the infinite (deductive) Beth (definability) property, i.e., whenever a set Z of variables is defined implicitly in terms of a disjoint set X of variables by means of some set Γ of formal assertions about X ∪ Z , then Γ also defines Z explicitly in terms of X .
Residuated structures A square-increasing commutative residuated lattice (SRL) ❆ = � A ; ∧ , ∨ , · , → , e � comprises ◮ a lattice � A ; ∧ , ∨� , ◮ a commutative monoid � A ; · , e � ◮ that is square-increasing, i.e., x ≤ x · x := x 2 , ◮ and a binary operation → satisfying the law of residuation x · y ≤ z iff y ≤ x → z . We may enrich the language of SRLs with a constant symbol f and define an involution ¬ x := x → f that satisfies x = ¬¬ x and x → ¬ y = y → ¬ x , thus obtaining SIRLs. It follows that ¬ e = f .
Residuated structures ◮ In any SRL if x , y ≤ e then x · y = x ∧ y . ◮ Integral ( x ≤ e ) SRLs are called Brouwerian algebras in which case · coincides with ∧ . Given an S[I]RL ❆ , its negative cone A − := { a ∈ A : a ≤ e } can be turned into a Brouwerian algebra ❆ − = � A − ; ∧ , ∨ , e , → − � , by restricting the operations ∧ , ∨ to A − and defining a → − b = ( a → b ) ∧ e , for a , b ∈ A − . ◮ Heyting algebras are Brouwerian algebras with a distinguished bottom element ⊥ . ◮ Distributive SRLs are called Dunn monoids . ◮ Distributive SIRLs are called De Morgan monoids . ◮ Idempotent ( x = x · x ) De Morgan monoids are called Sugihara monoids . Their structure is very well understood.

Depth For any Brouwerian algebra ❇ , let Pr( ❇ ) be the set of non-empty prime lattice filters F of ❇ , including B itself. We define the depth of F in Pr( ❇ ) to be the greatest n ∈ ω (if it exists) such that there is a chain in Pr( ❇ ) of the the form F = F 0 � F 1 � · · · � F n = B . If no greatest such n exists, we say F has depth ∞ in Pr( ❇ ). We define depth( ❇ ) = sup { depth( F ) : F ∈ Pr( ❇ ) } . If ❆ is an S[I]RL and K is a variety of S[I]RLs, we define depth( ❆ ) = depth( ❆ − ) and depth( K ) = sup { depth( ❆ ) : ❆ ∈ K } . If a variety of S[I]RLs is finitely generated, then it has finite depth (but not conversely).
Main Theorem Thm. Let K be a variety of SRLs such that 1) ❆ = Sg( A − ) for every ❆ ∈ K FSI and 2) K has finite depth. Then K has surjective epimorphisms. ◮ K FSI denotes the class of finitely subdirectly irreducible members of K . Sg( − ) denotes subalgebra generation. ◮ The argument also works for expansions of SRLs, where the additional operations on each algebra in K are compatible with the congruences of its SRL reduct. ◮ In particular, the theorem holds if we add involution or distinguished least elements to the type. ◮ Therefore, this theorem generalises the recent result of Bezhanishvili, Moraschini and Raftery (2017) that every variety of Brouwerian or Heyting algebras of finite depth has the ES property.

Thm. A Dunn monoid ❉ is generated by its negative cone iff R ( ❉ ) is. Let K be a variety of Dunn monoids. Then K has Thm. surjective epimorphisms iff V ( R ( K )) has. In particular, ❉ has a proper K -epic subalgebra iff R ( ❉ ) has a proper V ( R ( K )) -epic subalgebra.

Applications Let K be a variety of S[I]RLs such that 1) ❆ = Sg( A − ) for every ❆ ∈ K FSI and Thm. 2) K has finite depth. Then K has surjective epimorphisms. There are many interesting varieties of S[I]RLs whose FSI members are generated by their negative cones. For example Sugihara monoids, their involution-less subreducts, and Brouwerian algebras. Our main theorem therefore implies (the known results) that each of their finitely generated subvarieties have surjective epimorphisms.
New applications Let K be a variety of S[I]RLs such that 1) ❆ = Sg( A − ) for every ❆ ∈ K FSI and Thm. 2) K has finite depth. Then K has surjective epimorphisms. ◮ ❈ 4 is the only 0-generated algebra onto which finitely subdirectly irreducible De Morgan s f 2 monoids may be mapped by non-injective s f homomorphisms. ❈ 4 : s e ◮ There is a largest variety U of De Morgan s ¬ ( f 2 ) monoids consisting of homomorphic preimages of ❈ 4 (and trivial algebras).

New applications Let K be a variety of S[I]RLs such that 1) ❆ = Sg( A − ) for every ❆ ∈ K FSI and Thm. 2) K has finite depth. Then K has surjective epimorphisms. V ( ❈ 4 ) has just ten covers in U , each of which satisfies (1) and is generated by a finite algebra, see (Moraschini, Raftery and Wannenburg, 2017). Each of these varieties therefore has surjective epimorphisms. DM U V ( ❈ 4 ) trivial
Semilinear SRLs An SRL ❆ is called semilinear if it is a subdirect product of totally ordered SRLs. These form a variety. A semilinear S[I]RL is FSI iff it is totally ordered. Certain semilinear varieties of S[I]RLs enjoy strong positive ES results, see (Bezhanishvili, Moraschini and Raftery, 2017): ◮ Every variety of semilinear Brouwerian or Heyting algebras (resp. relative Stone and G¨ odel algebras) has surjective epimorphisms. ◮ Every variety of Sugihara monoids is semilinear and has surjective epimorphisms, ◮ the same applies to the involution-less subreducts of Sugihara monoids.
