Cyclicity in EL-hypergroups

Cyclicity in EL-hypergroups

Článek WoS

In the algebra of single-valued structures, cyclicity is one of the fundamental properties of groups. Therefore, it is natural to study it also in the algebra of multivalued structures (algebraic hyperstructure theory). However, when one considers the nature of generalizing this property, at least two (or rather three) approaches seem natural. Historically, all of these had been introduced and studied by 1990. However, since most of the results had originally been published in journals without proper international impact and later—without the possibility to include proper background and context-synthetized in books, the current way of treating the concept of cyclicity in the algebraic hyperstructure theory is often rather confusing. Therefore, we start our paper with a rather long introduction giving an overview and motivation of existing approaches to the cyclicity in algebraic hyperstructures. In the second part of our paper, we relate these to EL-hyperstructures, a broad class of algebraic hyperstructures constructed from (pre)ordered (semi)groups, which were defined and started to be studied much later than sources discussed in the introduction were published.
