Abstract
Given an ordered set P and an antitone map g : P → P, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an odd positive integer k such that gk is isotone. The results obtained have a natural application to the dual space of an Ockham algebra. In particular, we determine the cardinality of the endomorphism semigroup of a finite subdirectly irreducible Ockham algebra.
