The unit square is regarded as a special kind of dynamical system. It is proved that the square is an MV-algebra, hence the recent results on MValgebra entropy theory can be applied to it.

We present a uniform version of Di Nola Theorem, this enables to embed all MV-algebras of a bounded cardinality in an algebra of functions with values in a single non-standard ultrapower of the real interval [0, 1]. This result also implies the existence, for any cardinal α, of a single MValgebra in which all infinite MV-algebras of cardinality at most α embed. Recasting the above construction ...

The notion of a linear space is generalized to the case where the underlying algebra is a commutative monoid and the set of scalars is a semiring reduct of a BL-algebra or an MValgebra. The notions of linear dependence and independence are also introduced and necessary and sufficient conditions when vectors form a basis of a semi-linear space are given. A linear mapping between two semilinear s...

This paper is an attempt at developing a theory of algebraic systems that would correspond in a natural fashion to the N0-valued prepositional calculus^). For want of a better name, we shall call these algebraic systems MV-algebras where MV is supposed to suggest many-valued logics. It is known that the classical two-valued logic gives rise to the study of Boolean algebras and, as can be expect...

For any BL-algebra L, we construct an associated lattice ordered Abelian group GL that coincides with the Chang’s `-group of an MV-algebra when the BL-algebra is an MValgebra. We prove that the Chang’s group of the MV-center of any BL-algebra L is a direct summand in GL. We also find a direct description of the complement S(L) of the Chang’s group of the MV-center in terms of the filter of dens...

In this paper we present the logic FP (! Ln, ! L) which allows to reason about the probability of fuzzy events formalized by means of the notion of state in a MValgebra. This logic is defined starting from a basic idea exposed by Hájek in [13]. Two kinds of semantics have been introduced, namely the class of weak and strong probabilistic models. The main result of this paper is a completeness t...

The aim of the present paper is to define the localisation of MValgebra of an MV-algebra A with respect to a topology F on A. In the last part of the paper it is proved that the maximal MV-algebra of quotients (defined in [6]) and the MV-algebra of fractions relative to an ∧−closed system (defined in [5]) are MV algebra of localisation. The concept of multiplier for distributive lattices was de...

BL-algebras are the Lindembaum algebras of the propositional calculus coming from the continuous triangular norms and their residua in the real unit interval. Any BL-algebra is a subdirect product of local (linear)BLalgebras. A local BL-algebra is either locally finite (and hence an MValgebra) or perfect or peculiar. Here we study extensively perfect BLalgebras characterizing, with a finite sch...

The aim of this work is to study a class of non-archimedean valued measures on MV-algebras. We call them hyperreal states and their definition naturally arise from (the uniform version of) Di Nola representation theorem for MV-algebras (cf [5, 6]): for any MV-algebra A = (A,⊕,¬,>,⊥) there exists a ultrafilter U on the cardinality of A such that A embeds into (∗[0, 1]U) Spec(A) (where as usual S...

Flaminio and Montagna (2008) enlarged the language of MV-algebras by a unary operation σ, called internal state or a state operator, equationally defined so as to preserve the basic properties of a state in its usual meaning. The resulting class of MV-algebras is called state MV-algebras. Jenča (2007) and Vetterlein (2008), using different approaches, represented MV-algebras through the quotien...
