German term or phrase: Hüllen-Algebren
This is from a transcript and is actually on a Schein issued upon completion of a class. I am not a mathematician, so am not familiar with this term. The student is attending the Mathematical Institute at the Universität Heidelberg.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Sentence

Herr stud. rer. nat. NAME hat im Winter Semester 1974/75 an dem vom Unterzeichneten abgehaltenen Proseminar über Boolesche Algebren teilgenommen und einen Vortrag über **Hüllen-Algebren** gehalten.

I know that Hülle normally means, shell, casing, sheath etc. Any mathematicians out there?
