Primitive satisfaction and equational problems for lattices and other algebras

Abstract

This paper presents a general method of solving equational problems in all equational classes of algebras whose congruence lattices are distributive, such as those consisting of lattices, relation algebras, cylindric algebras, orthomodular lattices, lattice-ordered rings, lattice-ordered groups, Heyting algebras, other lattice-ordered algebras, implication algebras, arithmetic rings, and arithmetical algebras.
