We investigate amalgamation properties of relational type algebras. Besides purely algebraic interest, amalgamation in a class of algebras is important because it leads to interpolation results for the logic corresponding to that class (cf. [15]). The multi-modal logic corresponding to relational type algebras became known under the name of “arrow logic” (cf. [18, 17]), and has been studied rather extensively lately (cf. [10]). Our research was inspired by the following result of Andréka et al. [1].Let K be a class of relational type algebras such that(i) composition is associative,(ii) K is a class of boolean algebras with operators, and(iii) K contains the representable relation algebras RRA.Then the equational theory of K is undecidable.On the other hand, there are several classes of relational type algebras (e.g., NA, WA denned below) whose equational (even universal) theories are decidable (cf. [13]). Composition is not associative in these classes. Theorem 5 indicates that also with respect to amalgamation (a very weak form of) associativity forms a borderline. We first recall the relevant definitions.
