Abstract

Although each de Morgan algebra has not always fixed points(centers), it has always fixed cores, the natural extention of fixed points. Fixed cores, of they do not degenerate to fixed points, are Boolean algebras, It is also shown the necessary and sufficient condition a algebra to be a Kleene algebra(fuzzy algebra) is that it has just one fixed core.
