Chen and Grätzer [3], [4] have had great success in describing the properties of Stone lattices by way of representing them as triples. Their triple representation has recently been generalized to distributive pseudo-complemented lattices by Katriňák [6]. By varying the approach slightly Katriňák [5] has been able to obtain a triple representation for distributive pseudo-complemented semilattices that enabled him to characterize semilattices from distributive pseudo-complemented semilattices through to Stone lattices and Brouwer lattices in an elegant unified manner.
