Topic: Canonical form Boolean algebra

	Boolean algebra
		A homomorphism between the Boolean algebras A and B is a function f : A → B such that for all a, b in A:
		Every Boolean algebra (A,,) gives rise to a ring (A, +, ) by defining a + b = (a ¬b) (b ¬a) (this operation is called "symmetric difference" in the case of sets and XOR in the case of logic) and a b = a b.
		An ideal of the Boolean algebra A is a subset I such that for all x, y in I we have x y in I and for all a in A we have a x in I.

	PlanetMath: Boolean ring
		Boolean rings are equivalent to Boolean algebras (or Boolean lattices).
		In particular, the category of Boolean rings is isomorphic to the category of Boolean lattices.
		This is version 20 of Boolean ring, born on 2002-02-24, modified 2006-08-03.

	3.3 Algebraic Manipulation of Boolean Expressions
		Since there are a finite number of boolean functions of n input variables, yet an infinite number of possible logic expressions you can construct with those n input values, clearly there are an infinite number of logic expressions that are equivalent (i.e., they produce the same result given the same inputs).
		Obviously, the canonical form is not the optimal form.
		Perhaps the easiest way to generate the canonical form of a boolean function is to first generate the truth table for that function and then build the canonical form from the truth table.

	Graduate Study in Algebra
		Algebra is one of the oldest branches of mathematics, and the study of algebra in the Department of Mathematics has traditionally been rich and strong.
		The research strengths of the faculty are in the theory of rings (commutative and noncommutative), the theory of groups, algebraic number theory, the representation theory of groups and algebras, and algebraic geometry.
		The core graduate courses in algebra are Abstract Algebra I and II (Math 500 and 501).

		In a Boolean algebra, a Boolean function that is composed of standard logical operators can be expressed in a canonical form using the dual concepts of minterms and maxterms.
		All logical functions are expressible in canonical form, both as a "sum of minterms" and as a "product of maxterms".
		A Boolean function expressed as a disjunction (OR) of minterms is commonly known as the "sum of products", and its De Morgan dual is the "product of sums", which is a function expressed as a conjunction (AND) of maxterms.

	Boolean algebra in terms of the exclusive-OR operator
		That this algebra is a necessary part of Boolean algebra and augments rather than replaces the more familiar algebra based on the OR operator.
		Boolean algebra as commonly presented is constructed from only two of these three operators.
		Other canonical forms are possible, for example you can replace all unprimed variables with primed variables instead of replacing all primed variables with unprimed variables.

		In mathematics and computer science, Boolean algebras, or Boolean lattices, are algebraic structures which "capture the essence" of the logical operations AND, OR and NOT as well as the corresponding set theoretic operations intersection, union and complement.
		A homomorphism between the Boolean algebras A and B is a function f : A → B such that for all a, b in A: :''f''(''a''

		NOTATION FOR CANONICAL SUM-OF-PRODUCTS If we look once more at our Majority 2-out-of-3 function in canonical form: z(a,b,c) = a'bc + ab'c + abc' + abc there is a shorthand method of expressing this function, using "sigma" notation: ___ z(a,b,c) = \ (3, 5, 6, 7) /__ (where the symbol is the greek letter "sigma").

	Art of Assembly: Chapter Two
		Boolean algebra is a deductive mathematical system closed over the values zero and one (false and true).
		The boolean system is closed with respect to a binary operator if for every pair of boolean values, it produces a boolean result.
		A boolean expression is a sequence of zeros, ones, and literals separated by boolean operators.

		Known as the first canonical form, this a pure OR combination of minterms where a minterm is an AND function that includes each variable once in its normal or complemented form.
		Known as the second canonical form, this a pure AND combination of maxterms where a maxterm is an OR function that includes each variable once in its normal or complemented form.
		Then it is necessary to apply the rules of Boolean algebra for converting minterm expressions to maxterm expressions as is described in the Boolean Algebra summary.

		We develop a self-dual algebra such that every point in the algebra is representable by some formula in the logic.
		In particular, we show that this algebra is an instantiation of the Chu construction applied to a Heyting algebra, the second Dialectica construction applied to a Heyting algebra, and as an algebra for the study of recursion and corecursion.
		In particular, we show that this algebra is an instantiation of the $\Chu$ construction applied to a pseudo-Boolean algebra, the second Dialectica construction applied to a pseudo-Boolean algebra, and as posetal case of a suggestion by Pitts for the study of recursion and corecursion.

		The two-element Boolean algebra is also used for circuit design in electrical engineering; Here 0 and 1 represent the two different states of one bit in a digital circuit, typically high and low voltage.
		The power set of any given set S forms a Boolean algebra with the two operations ∨ := ∪ (union) and ∧ := ∩ (intersection).
		Other examples of Boolean algebras arise from topological spaces: if X is a topological space, then the collection of all subsets of X which are both open and closed forms a Boolean algebra with the operations ∨ := ∪ (union) and ∧ := ∩ (intersection).

	Algebra
		A familiar example is Boolean algebra, where the symbols represent the binary values 0 and 1 or T and F, and the operations are OR (analogous to +) and AND (analogous to X).
		The roots of quadratic, cubic and quartic equations are algebraic.
		Algebraic results may be tested by restricting them to cases where the outcome is simple and known.

		Indexing minterms In general, one assigns each minterm (ensuring the variables are written in the same order, usually alphabetic), an index based on the binary value of the minterm.
		Summary of results All logical functions are expressible in a canonical form, either a "sum of minterms" or "product of maxterms" form.
		This, apart from being able to express complicated logical functions in a straightforward and simple algebraic form, allows for greater analysis into the simplification of these functions, which is of great importance in the minimization of digital circuits.
