Semidistributivity and Whitman Property in Implication Zroupoids

In 2012, the second author introduced and studied the variety $\mathcal{I}$ of implication zroupoids that generalize De Morgan algebras and $\lor$-semilattices with $0$. An algebra $\mathbf A = \langle A, \to, 0 \rangle$, where $\to$ is binary and $0$ is a constant, is called an \emph{implication zroupoid} ($\mathcal{I}$-zroupoid, for short) if $\mathbf A$ satisfies: $(x \to y) \to z \approx [(z' \to x) \to (y \to z)']'$, where $x' : = x \to 0$, and $0'' \approx 0$. Let $\mathcal{I}$ denote the variety of implication zroupoids and $\mathbf A \in \mathcal{I}$. For $x,y \in \mathbf A$, let $x \land y := (x \to y')'$ and $x \lor y := (x' \land y')'$. In an earlier paper we had proved that if $\mathbf A \in \mathcal{I}$, then the algebra $\mathbf A_{mj} = \langle A, \lor, \land \rangle$ is a bisemigroup. In this paper we generalize the notion of semi-distributivity from lattices to bisemigroups and prove that, for every $\mathbf A \in \mathcal{I}$, the bisemigroup $\mathbf A_{mj}$ is semidistributive. Secondly, we generalize the Whitman Property from lattices to bisemigroups and prove that the subvariety $\mathcal{MEJ}$ of $\mathcal I$, defined by the identity: $x \land y \approx x \lor y$, satisfies the Whitman Property.
