We introduced the concept of a metric value set (MVS) in an earlier paper \cite{GM}. In this paper we study the algebraic structure of MVSs. For an MVS $M$ we define the concept of $M$-metrizability of a topological space and prove some…
We prove that there exists a functorial correspondence between MV-algebras and partially cyclically ordered groups which are wound round of lattice-ordered groups. It follows that some results about cyclically ordered groups can be stated…
We aim at studying collections of algebraic structures defined over a commutative ring and investigating the complexity of significant constructions carried out on these objects. The assignment of measures of size, via a multiplicity…
Positive MV-algebras are the subreducts of MV-algebras with respect to the signature $\{\oplus, \odot, \lor, \land, 0, 1\}$. We provide a finite quasi-equational axiomatization for the class of such algebras.
The aim of the paper is to study epicomplete objects in the category of $MV$-algebras. A relation between injective $MV$-algebras and epicomplete $MV$-algebras is found, an equivalence condition for an $MV$-algebra to be epicomplete is…
We present a complete characterization of subdirectly irreducible MV-algebras with internal states (SMV-algebras). This allows us to classify subdirectly irreducible state morphism MV-algebras (SMMV-algebras) and describe single generators…
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…
The paper provides a study of pseudo MV-algebras with square roots. We introduce different notions of a square root on a pseudo MV-algebra, and present their main properties. We show that the class of pseudo-MV-algebras with square roots is…
Complete MV-algebras are naturally equipped with frame structures. We call them MV-frames and investigate some of their main the properties as frames. We completely characterized algebraic MV-frames as well as regular MV-frames. In…
In this paper, a new algebraic structure is defined, which is a new MV-algebra that has a product operation, we will call it MVW-rig (Multivalued-weak rig). This structure is defined with universal algebra axioms, it is presented with a…
For a given measure space $(X,{\mathscr B},\mu)$ we construct all measure spaces $(Y,{\mathscr C},\lambda)$ in which $(X,{\mathscr B},\mu)$ is embeddable. The construction is modeled on the ultrafilter construction of the Stone--\v{C}ech…
In this paper we review some of the main achievements of the semiring-theoretic approach to MV-algebras initiated and pursued mainly by the present authors and their collaborators. The survey focuses mainly on the connections between…
In the last decade, interest in projective MV-algebras has grown greatly; see [1], [5] e [6]. In this paper we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for n elements of the free n-generator MV-algebra to generate a projective…
An MV-module is an MV-algebra endowed with a scalar multiplication with scalars in a PMV-algebra (i.e. an MV-algebra endowed with a binary "ring-like" product). We investigate the class of semisimple MV-modules over a semisimple and totally…
In this paper we propose a semiring-theoretic approach to MV-algebras based on the connection between such algebras and idempotent semirings - such an approach naturally imposing the introduction and study of a suitable corresponding class…
For an arbitrary BL-algebra L, we construct an associated lattice Abelian group that coincides with Chang's group when the BL-algebra is an MV-algebra. We prove that the Chang's group of the MV-center of any BL- algebra L is a direct…
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…
The conventional definition of a topological metric over a space specifies properties that must be obeyed by any measure of "how separated" two points in that space are. Here it is shown how to extend that definition, and in particular the…
In this paper, some properties and applications of MV-algebras are provided. We define a Fibonacci sequence in an MV-algebra and we prove that such a stationary sequence gives us an idempotent element. Taking into account of the…
We study associative multiplications in semi-simple associative algebras over C compatible with the usual one or, in other words, linear deformations of semi-simple associative algebras over C. It turns out that these deformations are in…
