Abstract
This paper considers interrelations between universal algebra, algebraic logic, geometry and computer science. The key idea of the paper is to show that problems, coming from computer science, require introducing of highly non-trivial mathematical structures. On the other hand, algebraic models in computer science give deeper understanding of problems essence. This general idea is illustrated on the example of knowledge bases. Theorems concerning the knowledge base equivalence problem are formulated.
