About a 'concrete' Rauszer Boolean algebra generated by a preorder

Abstract: Inspired by the fundamental results obtained by P. Halmos and A. Monteiro, concerning equivalence relations and monadic Boolean algebras, we recall the `concrete' Rauszer Boolean algebra pointed out by C. Rauszer (1971), via un preorder R. On this algebra we can consider one of the several binary operations defined, in an abstract way, by A. Monteiro (1971). The Heyting-Brouwer subalgebra of constants (fixpoints), allows us to give a general framework to find representations of several special algebraic structures related to logic.
