Boolean rings (B, ✗, + ) and Boolean logics ( = Boolean algebras) (B, ∩, *) are equationally interdefinable in a familiar way (6). Foster's theory of ring-logics (1; 2; 3) raises this interdefinability and indeed the entire Boolean theory to a more general level. In this theory a ring (or an algebra) R is studied modulo K, where K is an arbitrary transformation group (or “Coordinate transformations”) in R.
