Abstract

The residuated maps from a lattice L to itself form their own lattice, which we denote Res(L). In this dissertation, we explore the order automorphisms on the lattice Res(L) where L is a finite nondistributive lattice. It is known that left and right composition of f ∈ Res(L) with automorphisms of L yields an order automorphism of Res(L). It begs the question, then, if all order automorphisms of Res(L) can be classified as such.
