=====Boolean monoids=====

Abbreviation: **BMon**
====Definition====
A \emph{Boolean monoid} is a structure $\mathbf{A}=\langle A,\vee,0,
\wedge,1,\neg,\cdot,e\rangle$ such that


$\langle A,\vee,0,
\wedge,1,\neg\rangle $ is a [[Boolean algebra]]


$\langle A,\cdot,e\rangle $ is a [[monoids]]


$\cdot$ is \emph{join-preserving} in each argument:  
$(x\vee y)\cdot z=(x\cdot z)\vee (y\cdot z) \mbox{ and } x\cdot (y\vee z)=(x\cdot y)\vee (x\cdot z)$


$\cdot$ is \emph{normal} in each argument:  $0\cdot x=0 \mbox{ and } x\cdot 0=0$


Remark: 

==Morphisms==
Let $\mathbf{A}$ and $\mathbf{B}$ be Boolean monoids. 
A morphism from $\mathbf{A}$ to $\mathbf{B}$ is a function $h:A\rightarrow B$ that is a Boolean homomorphism and preserves $\cdot$, $e$:

$h(x\cdot y)=h(x)\cdot h(y) \mbox{ and } h(e)=e$
