FOREWARD
The conference on Universal Algebra and Lattice Theory held at The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina from July 11 to July 14, 1984 was attended by 71 mathematicians from seven countries.
The purpose of the meeting was to bring together
in North America for the first time since 1982 an international collection of active researchers representing current trends in the field.
The scientific program
consisted of eight invited lectures and 28 contributed talks. The present volume contains research papers based on lectures presented at the conference as well as contributions from colleagues who were invited to submit manuscripts that contain significant new results. are represented in the proceedings.
Several directions of current research
In keeping with the tradition set by its origin,
it is notable that there are a number of papers that deal with connections between lattice theory and universal algebra and other areas of mathematics such as geometry, graph theory, group theory and logic.
The editor wishes to thank the numerous
individuals who refereed the manuscripts submitted.
The editor also wishes to thank
the other members of the organizing committee, Bjarni Jonsson and Trevor Evans, for their valuable advice and guidance and to thank his colleagues at The Citadel for their practical support - in particular, Charles Cleaver, Leslie Crabtree, Margaret Francel, Jean-Marie Pages, and Russ Thompson. Financial support for the conference from the National Science Foundation and The Citadel Development Foundat
