PSEUDO P-CLOSURE WITH RESPECT TO IDEALS IN PSEUDO BCI-ALGEBRAS

In this paper, for any non-empty subsets A, I of a pseudo BCI-algebra X, we introduce the concept of pseudo p-closure of A with respect to I, denoted by A^pc_I, and investigate some related properties. Applying this concept, we state a necessary and sufficient condition for a pseudo BCI-algebra 1) to be a p-semisimple pseudo BCI-algebra; 2) to be a pseudo BCK-algebra. Moreover, we show that A^pc_{0} is the least positive pseudo ideal of X containing A, and characterize it by the union of some branches. We also show that the set of all pseudo ideals of X which A^pc_I = A, is a complete lattice. Finally, we prove that this notion can be used to define a closure operation.
