    Conversely, given an intermediate logic it is possible to construct its Lindenbaum–Tarski algebra, which is then a Heyting algebra. An intuitionistic Kripke frame F is a partially ordered set , and a Kripke model M is a Kripke frame with valuation such that { x ∣ M , x ⊩ p } {\displaystyle \{x\mid M,x\Vdash p\}} is an upper subset of F .

    The term algebra is derived from the Arabic word al-jabr meaning 'the reunion of broken parts' that he used for naming one of these methods in the title of his main treatise. [31] [32] Algebra became an area in its own right only with François Viète (1540–1603), who introduced the use of variables for representing unknown or unspecified ...
