Covers of V ( ❉ 4 ) Thm. Every join-irreducible cover of V ( ❉ 4 ) has the form V ( ❆ ) for some simple 1-generated De Morgan monoid ❆ , where ❉ 4 embeds into ❆ but is not isomorphic to ❆ . a p = f 2 s � ❅ � ❅ ❉❆ ♣ : a p − 1 s s f � ❅ � ◮ For every prime p , the algebra ❉❆ ♣ � ❅ � a p − 2 s ¬ a s ❅ � generates a cover of V ( ❉ 4 ), ❅ � qqq s ¬ ( a 2 ) a 2 qqq ◮ so there are infinitely many covers s � ❅ � ❅ a s ¬ ( a p − 2 ) s � ❅ � of V ( ❉ 4 ). � ❅ � t s ¬ ( a p − 1 ) s ❅ � ❅ ¬ ( f 2 ) � s

Covers of V ( ❈ 4 ) More cases, as ❈ 4 has diverse homomorphic pre-images. In fact: Thm. (Slaney) If h : ❆ → ❇ is a homomorphism from a finitely subdirectly irreducible De Morgan monoid into a 0-generated De Morgan monoid, then h is an isomorphism or ❇ ∼ = ❈ 4 . ◮ There is a largest subvariety U of DM such that every non-trivial member of U has ❈ 4 as a homomorphic image. ◮ U is finitely axiomatized. ◮ There is a largest subvariety M of DM such that ❈ 4 is a retract of all non-trivial members of M . ◮ M is axiomatized, relative to U , by t ≤ f .
Covers of V ( ❈ 4 ) Thm. If K is a join-irreducible cover of V ( ❈ 4 ) , then exactly one of the following holds. 1. K = V ( ❆ ) for some simple 1-generated De Morgan monoid ❆ , such that ❈ 4 embeds into ❆ but is not isomorphic to ❆ . 2. K = V ( ❆ ) for some (finite) 0-generated subdirectly irreducible De Morgan monoid ❆ ∈ U \ M . 3. K ⊆ M . DM U M V ( 2 ) V ( ❉ 4 ) V ( ❈ 4 ) V ( ❙ 3 ) trivial
Condition 1 1. K = V ( ❆ ) for some simple 1-generated De Morgan monoid ❆ , such that ❈ 4 embeds into ❆ but is not isomorphic to ❆ . ❆ ♣ : ❆ ∞ : f 2 f 2 s s f = a p ◮ For every prime p , the f s s ◮ There are covers of a p − 1 algebra ❆ ♣ generates ¬ a s s V ( ❈ 4 ) that are not q a cover of V ( ❈ 4 ), ¬ ( a 2 ) q s finitely generated, q q ◮ so, there are infinitely a 2 s q ◮ for example, ❆ ∞ q many covers of a 2 a s s generates a cover of V ( ❈ 4 ) that satisfy t a V ( ❈ 4 ). s s condition 1. ¬ ( f 2 ) t s s ¬ ( f 2 ) s
Condition 2 2. K = V ( ❆ ) for some (finite) 0-generated subdirectly irreducible De Morgan monoid ❆ ∈ U \ M . Slaney (1989) characterized all the 0-generated subdirectly irreducible De Morgan monoids. They are all finite, and apart from the simple ones, they are: ❈ 7 : ❈ 8 : ❈ 5 : ❈ 6 : f 2 f 2 s s f 2 s s f 2 s s � ❅ � ❅ s � � ❅ f � ❅ ¬ ( f · ( t ∧ f )) ❅ � ❅ f f s s s s ❅ � � ❅ � s � ❅ s s s � ❅ � ❅ � ❅ � ❅ � � ❅ ❅ t � ❅ � ❅ f · ( t ∧ f ) s s s s s � ❅ ❅ � ❅ � s f s s s s ❅ � ❅ � ❅ � ❅ ❅ � ❅ � t t f · ( t ∧ f ) ❅ � s s s s s ❅ � ❅ � t s � ❅ � s ❅ � � ❅ � s s s ❅ s � ¬ ( f 2 ) s ❅ � ¬ ( f 2 ) s ¬ ( f 2 ) s ¬ ( f 2 ) s
Condition 3 3. K ⊆ M Every subdirectly irreducible algebra in M arises by a construction of Slaney (1993) from a Dunn monoid ❇ [essentially a De Morgan monoid without the involution ¬ ], i.e., a square-increasing distributive lattice-ordered commutative monoid � B ; ∨ , ∧ , · , → , t � that satisfies the law of residuation x ≤ y → z iff x · y ≤ z . Let’s call this construction skew reflection .

Skew Reflection Declare that a < b ′ for certain a , b ∈ B in such a way that � B ∪ B ′ ∪ {⊥ , ⊤} ; ≤� is a distributive lattice, t < t ′ and for all a , b ∈ B , s a < b ′ iff t < ( a · b ) ′ . ⊤ B ′ Then there is a unique way of turning the a ′ structure into a De Morgan monoid s t ′ ✑ s ✑✑✑ S < ( ❇ ) = � B ∪ B ′ ∪ {⊥ , ⊤} ; ∨ , ∧ , · , ¬ , t � ∈ M , t s a of which ❇ is a subreduct, where ¬ extends ′ . s In particular, if we specify that a < b ′ for all B a , b ∈ B , then we get the reflection ⊥ construction, which is an older idea, see Meyer s (1973) and Galatos and Raftery (2004). In this case we write R ( ❇ ) for S < ( ❇ ).
Covers of V ( ❈ 4 ) within M Thm. Let K be a cover of V ( ❈ 4 ) within M . Then K = V ( ❆ ) for some finite skew reflection ❆ of a subdirectly irreducible Dunn monoid ❇ , where ⊥ is meet-irreducible in ❆ , and ❆ is generated by the greatest strict lower bound of t in ❇ .
