Abstract

In this paper, we propose a sentential logic naturally associated, in the sense of Abstract Algebraic Logic, with the variety of distributive nearlattices. We show that the class of algebras canonically associated (in the sense of Abstract Algebraic Logic) with this logic is the variety of distributive nearlattices. We also present several properties of this sentential logic.
