derived Boolean operations


Recall that a Boolean algebraMathworldPlanetmath is an algebraic system A consisting of five operationsMathworldPlanetmath:

  1. 1.

    two binary operationsMathworldPlanetmath: the meet and the join ,

  2. 2.

    one unary operation: the complementation , and

  3. 3.

    two nullary operations (constants): 0 and 1.

From these operations, define the following “derived” operations (on A): for a,bA

  1. 1.

    (subtraction) a-b:=ab,

  2. 2.

    (symmetric differenceMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath or additionPlanetmathPlanetmath) aΔb (or a+b):=(a-b)(b-a),

  3. 3.

    (conditionalMathworldPlanetmath) ab:=(a-b),

  4. 4.

    (biconditionalMathworldPlanetmath) ab:=(ab)(ba), and

  5. 5.

    (Sheffer strokePlanetmathPlanetmath) a|b:=ab.

Notice that the operators and are dual of - and Δ respectively.

It is evident that these derived operations (and indeed the entire theory of Boolean algebras) owe their existence to those operations and connectivesMathworldPlanetmath that are found in logic and set theoryMathworldPlanetmath, as the following table illustrates:
