Abstract:
      The variety ${\bf eO}$ of extended Ockham algebras consists of those algebras $(L;\wedge, \vee, f$, $k,0,1)$ such that $(L;\wedge,\vee,0,1)$ is a bounded distributive lattice together with a dual endomorphism $f$ on $L$ and an endomorphism $k$ on $L$ such that $fk=kf$. In this paper we extend Urquhart's theorem to ${\bf eO}$-algebras and we are in particular concerned with the subclass ${\bf e_2M}$ of ${\bf eO}$-algebras in which $f^2=id$ and $k^2=id$. We show that there are 19 non-equivalent axioms in ${\bf e_2M}$ and then order them by implication.
