Abstract. In this manuscript first by definition of regular congruence relation on a
hyper BCK-algebra, we construct a quotient hyper BCK-algebra. After that, we state
and prove the homomorphism and isomorphism theorems for hyper BCK-algebras. Fi-
nally, we show that there exists at least one maximal regular congruence relation in a
bounded hyper BCK-algebra.
1. Introduction
The study of BCK-algebras was initiated by Y. Imai and K. Is´eki[5] in 1966 as a gen-
eralization of the concept of set-theoretic difference and propositional calculi. Since then a
great deal of literature has been produced on the theory of BCK-algebras. In particular,
emphasis seems to have been put on the ideal theory of BCK-algebras. The hyperstruc-
ture theory (called also multialgebras)was introduced in 1934 by F. Marty [10] at the 8th
congress of Scandinavian Mathematiciens. Around the 40’s, several authors worked on
hypergroups, especially in France and in the United States, but also in Italy, Russia and
Japan. Over the following decades, many important results appeared, but above all since
the 70’s onwards the most luxuriant flourishing of hyperstructures has been seen. Hyper-
structures have many applications to several sectors of both pure and applied sciences. In
[8], Y. B. Jun et al. applied the hyperstructures to BCK-algebras, and introduced the
notion of a hyper BCK-algebra which is a generalization of BCK-algebra, and investigated
some related properties. They also introduced the notions of hyper BCK-ideal, strong
and reflexive hyper BCK-ideals. Now we follow [9] and introduce the concept of quotient
hyper BCK-algebras. Then we prove homomorphism and isomorphism theorems for hyper
BCK-algebras and we get some related results. Finally, we show that there exists at least
one maximal regular congruence relation in a bounded hyper BCK-algebra.
2. Preliminaries
Definition 2.1. [8] By a hyper BCK-algebra we mean a non-empty set H endowed with
a hyperoperation “◦” and a constant 0 satisfying the following axioms:
(HK1) (x ◦ z) ◦ (y ◦ z) -
x ◦ y,
(HK2) (x ◦ y) ◦ z = (x ◦ z) ◦ y,
(HK3) x ◦ H -
{x},
(HK4) x -
y and y -
x imply x = y.
for all x, y, z ∈ H, where x -
y is defined by 0 ∈ x ◦ y and for every A, B ⊆ H, A -
B is
defined by ∀a ∈ A, ∃b ∈ B such that a -
b. In such case, we call “-
” the hyperorder in H.
