Abstract: The present paper characterizes classes of distributive lattices whose monadic, monadic chain, or monadic antichain theory are decidable. Mathematics Subject Classi cation (2000): 06D99, 03B25 1 Introduction The elementary theory of a nite distributive lattice can easily be interpreted in the monadic second order theory of its join irreducible elements. Therefore, the decidability of the monadic second order theory of the join irreducible elements implies that of the elementary theory of... (Update)
