Proper varieties of distributive l-pregroups are periodic
Abstract
We show that every proper variety of distributive ℓ-pregroups is periodic; as a result, the subvariety lattice of the variety of distributive ℓ-pregroups decomposes into a disjoint union of bounded intervals each consisting of all properly n-periodic varieties, for different n ∈ ℤ+. On the way, we study non-periodic (one-generated) subalgebras of F(ℤ) and show that they either contain a non-periodic idempotent or they contain idempotents of arbitrary big periodicity. The same results holds for non-periodic one-generated subalgebras of F(J overrightarrow× ℤ), where J is a chain, generated by a composite element and the resulting idempotents can be taken to be local in the associated wreath product.
