Abstract
We propose the Chinese Remainder Theorem in distributive lattices and apply the results to investigate the congruences induced by algebraic functions on distributive lattices. It is shown that the congruence induced by an algebraic function preserves abutment relationships in distributive lattices.
Keywords: Distributive lattice, algebraic function, congruence, Chinese remainder theorem, lattice polynomial function.
