Relatively pseudocomplemented directoids. (English) Zbl 1212.06004

Summary: The concept of relative pseudocomplement is introduced in a commutative directoid. It is shown that the operation of relative pseudocomplementation can be characterized by identities and hence the class of these algebras forms a variety. This variety is congruence weakly regular and congruence distributive. A description of congruences via their kernels is presented and the kernels are characterized as the so-called \(p\)-ideals.
