Abstract:
Let be an arbitrary variety of algebras and an algebra in . Along with algebraic geometry in over the distinguished algebra , a logical geometry in over is considered. This insight leads to a system of notions and stimulates a number of new problems. Some logical invariants of algebras are introduced and logical relations between different and in are analyzed. The paper contains a brief review of ideas of logical geometry (§1), the necessary material from algebraic logic (§2), and a deeper introduction to the subject (§3). Also, a list of problems is given.
