Abstract

The variety of \({{\bf N4}^\perp}\)-lattices provides an algebraic semantics for the logic \({{\bf N4}^\perp}\) , a version of Nelson’s logic combining paraconsistent strong negation and explosive intuitionistic negation. In this paper we construct the Priestley duality for the category of \({{\bf N4}^\perp}\)-lattices and their homomorphisms. The obtained duality naturally extends the Priestley duality for Nelson algebras constructed by R. Cignoli and A. Sendlewski.
