We initiate a deep study of {\em Riesz MV-algebras} which are MV-algebras endowed with a scalar multiplication with scalars from $[0,1]$. Extending Mundici's equivalence between MV-algebras and $\ell$-groups, we prove that Riesz MV-algebras…

An algebraic setting for the validity of Pavelka style completeness for some natural expansions of \L ukasiewicz logic by new connectives and rational constants is given. This algebraic approach is based on the fact that the standard…

We characterize all profinite MV-algebras, these are MV-algebras that are inverse limits of finite MV-algebras. It is shown that these are exactly direct product of finite \L ukasiewicz's chains. We also prove that the category $\mathbb{M}$…

Compact Hausdorff topological MV-algebras and Stone MV-algebras are completely characterized. We obtain that compact Hausdorff topological MV-algebras are product (both topological and algebraic) of copies $[0,1]$ with standard topology and…

Replacing $\{0\}$ by the whole ideal of infinitesimals yields a weaker notion of \emph{archimedean element} that we call \emph{quasiarchimedean}. It is known that semisimple MV-algebras with compact maximal spectrum (in the co-Zarisky…

Our main issue was to understand the connection between \L ukasiewicz logic with product and the Pierce-Birkhoff conjecture, and to express it in a mathematical way. To do this we define the class of \textit{f}MV-algebras, which are…

In this paper we present some results on the variety of divisible MV-algebras. Any free divisible MV-algebra is an algebra of continuous piecewise linear functions with rational coefficients. Correspondingly, Rational {\L}ukasiewicz logic…

MV-monoids are algebras $\langle A,\vee,\wedge, \oplus,\odot, 0,1\rangle$ where $\langle A, \vee, \wedge, 0, 1\rangle$ is a bounded distributive lattice, both $\langle A, \oplus, 0 \rangle$ and $\langle A, \odot, 1\rangle$ are commutative…

We study \L ukasiewicz logic enriched with a scalar multiplication with scalars taken in $[0,1]$. Its algebraic models, called {\em Riesz MV-algebras}, are, up to isomorphism, unit intervals of Riesz spaces with a strong unit endowed with…

Unbounded {\L}ukasiewicz logic is a substructural logic that combines features of infinite-valued {\L}ukasiewicz logic with those of abelian logic. The logic is finitely strongly complete w.r.t.~the additive $\ell$-group on the reals…

An abstract convergence theorem for a class of generalized descent methods that explicitly models relative errors is proved. The convergence theorem generalizes and unifies several recent abstract convergence theorems. It is applicable to…

General theory determines the notion of separable MV-algebra (equivalently, of separable unital lattice-ordered Abelian group). We establish the following structure theorem: An MV-algebra is separable if, and only if, it is a finite product…

MV-algebras were introduced by Chang to prove the completeness of the infinite-valued Lukasiewicz propositional calculus. In this paper we give a categorical equivalence between the varieties of (n+1)-valued MV-algebras and the classes of…

A lexicographic pseudo MV-algebra is an algebra that is isomorphic to an interval in the lexicographic product of a linear unital group with an arbitrary $\ell$-group. We present conditions when a pseudo MV-algebra is lexicographic. We show…

The goal of the present article is to extend the study of commutative rings whose ideals form an MV-algebra as carried out by Belluce and Di Nola to non-commutative rings. We study and characterize all rings whose ideals form a pseudo…

Here we initiate an investigation into the class mLMn{\times}m of monadic n{\times}m-valued Lukasiewicz-Moisil algebras (or mLMn{\times}m-algebras), namely n{\times}m-valued Lukasiewicz-Moisil algebras endowed with a unary operation called…

The unit interval in a partially ordered abelian group with order unit forms an interval effect algebra (IEA) which can be regarded as an algebraic model for the semantics of a formal deductive logic. There is a categorical equivalence…

MV-algebras are an algebraic semantics for Lukasiewicz logic and MV-algebras generated by a finite chain are Heyting algebras where the Godel implication can be written in terms of De Morgan and Moisil's modal operators. In our work, a…

If $Q$ is a non degenerate quadratic form on ${\bb C}^n$, it is well known that the differential operators $X=Q(x)$, $Y=Q(\partial)$, and $H=E+\frac{n}{2}$, where $E$ is the Euler operator, generate a Lie algebra isomorphic to ${\go…

We prove that any MV-algebra has a faithful state can be embedded in an \em{f}MV-algebra of integrable functions. As consequence, we prove H\"older's inequality and Hausdorff moment problem for MV-algebras with product and we propose a…
