Abstract

In this paper, we study the lattice and the Boolean algebra, possibly closed under quotient, generated by the languages of the form u∗, where u is a word. We provide effective equational characterisations of these classes, i.e. one can decide using our descriptions whether a given regular language belongs or not to each of them.
