In ring theory, the lifting idempotent property (LIP) is related to some important classes of rings: clean rings, exchange rings, local and semilocal rings, Gelfand rings,maximal rings, etc. Inspired by LIP, there were defined lifting properties for other algebraic structures: MV-algebras, BL-algebras, residuated lattices, abelian l-groups, congruence distributive universal algebras,etc. In this paper we define a lifting property (LP) in quantales, structures that constitute a good abstraction of the lattices of ideals, filters or congruences. LP generalizes all the lifting properties existing in literature. The main tool in the study of LP in a quantale A is the reticulation of A, a bounded distributive lattice whose prime spectrum is homeomorphic to the prime spectrum os A. The principal results of the paper include a characterization theorem for quantales with LP, a structure theorem for semilocal quantales with LP and a charaterization theorem for hyperarhimedean quantales.
In this paper, we introduce the lifting properties for the Boolean elements of bounded distributive lattices with respect to the congruences, filters and ideals, we establish how they relate to each other and to significant algebraic properties, and we determine important classes of bounded distributive lattices which satisfy these lifting properties.
We define lifting properties for universal algebras, which we study in this general context and then particularize to various such properties in certain classes of algebras. Next we focus on residuated lattices, in which we investigate lifting properties for Boolean and idempotent elements modulo arbitrary, as well as specific kinds of filters. We give topological characterizations to the lifting property for Boolean elements and several properties related to it, many of which we obtain by means of the reticulation.
