A Heyting algebra is a bounded lattice equipped with an operation satisfyingThus, for fixed , the map is left adjoint to . A left adjoint preserves joins, soThis is one distributive law for lattices; the other follows from it and the absorption laws. Hence every Heyting algebra is a distributive lattice. This argument is the distributivity of a Heyting algebra.
