Abstract

An odd Sugihara monoid is a residuated distributive lattice-ordered commutative idempotent monoid with an order-reversing involution that fixes the monoid identity. The main theorem of this paper establishes a category equivalence between odd Sugihara monoids and relative Stone algebras. In combination with known results, it swiftly determines which varieties of odd Sugihara monoids are [strongly] amalgamable and which have the strong [or weak] epimorphism-surjectivity property. In particular, the full variety is shown to have all of these properties. The results extend, with slight modification, to the case where the algebras are bounded. Logical applications include immediate answers to some questions about projective and finite Beth definability and interpolation in the uninorm-based logic IUML, its boundless fragment and all of their extensions.
