Extending Boolean operations

Leon Henkin · Pacific Journal of Mathematics · 1970

The Stone representation theory provides a canonical method whereby each Boolean algebra A can be embedded isomorphically in a complete, atomistic Boolean algebra A*.Jonsson and Tarski have shown how each additive operation (of any number of places) on A can be extended canonically to a completely additive operation on A*, in such a way that whenever an equation involving given additive operations holds identically in A, the corresponding equation involving the canonical extensions of those operations will hold identically in A*.In this paper we present a generalization of this result.
