Abstract

In this paper, we study the \(\sup \)-algebra completions of ordered algebras. Firstly, we show that the \(\sup \)-algebra completions of the ordered algebras \(\mathcal {A}\) are completely determined, up to isomorphism, by the topological nuclei on \(\mathcal {P}(A)\). Moreover, we give the concrete forms of three types of special topological nuclei. Finally, we give the concrete form of injective hulls for arbitrary ordered algebras.
