Popis: α-Irreducible and α-Strongly Irreducible Ideals of a ring have been characterized in [2] and [4]. A complete lattice which is generated by compact elements is called an algebraic lattice for the simple reason that every such lattice is isomorphic to the lattice of subalgebras of a suitable universal algebra and vice-versa. In this paper, we characterize the irreducible elements and strongly irreducible elements in an algebraic lattice, which extends the results in [4] to arbitrary algebraic lattices. Also we obtain certain necessary and sufficient conditions, in terms of irreducible elements, for an algebraic lattice to satisfy the complete distributivity.
