    On a New Construction of Pseudo BL-Algebras

    Full text link
    We present a new construction of a class pseudo BL-algebras, called kite pseudo BL-algebras. We start with a basic pseudo hoop AA. Using two injective mappings from one set, JJ, into the second one, II, and with an identical copy Aā€¾\overline A with the reverse order we construct a pseudo BL-algebra where the lower part is of the form (Aā€¾)J(\overline A)^J and the upper one is AIA^I. Starting with a basic commutative hoop we can obtain even a non-commutative pseudo BL-algebra or a pseudo MV-algebra, or an algebra with non-commuting negations. We describe the construction, subdirect irreducible kite pseudo BL-algebras and their classification

    Kite Pseudo Effect Algebras

    Full text link
    We define a new class of pseudo effect algebras, called kite pseudo effect algebras, which is connected with partially ordered groups not necessarily with strong unit. In such a case, starting even with an Abelian po-group, we can obtain a noncommutative pseudo effect algebra. We show how such kite pseudo effect algebras are tied with different types of the Riesz Decomposition Properties. Kites are so-called perfect pseudo effect algebras, and we define conditions when kite pseudo effect algebras have the least non-trivial normal ideal

    Pseudo MV-algebras and Lexicographic Product

    Full text link
    We study algebraic conditions when a pseudo MV-algebra is an interval in the lexicographic product of an Abelian unital ā„“\ell-group and an ā„“\ell-group that is not necessary Abelian. We introduce (H,u)(H,u)-perfect pseudo MV-algebras and strong (H,u)(H,u)-perfect pseudo MV-algebras, the latter ones will have a representation by a lexicographic product. Fixing a unital ā„“\ell-group (H,u)(H,u), the category of strong (H,u)(H,u)-perfect pseudo MV-algebras is categorically equivalent to the category of ā„“\ell-groups.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1304.074

    States on pseudo effect algebras and integrals

    Full text link
    We show that every state on an interval pseudo effect algebra EE satisfying some kind of the Riesz Decomposition Properties (RDP) is an integral through a regular Borel probability measure defined on the Borel Ļƒ\sigma-algebra of a Choquet simplex KK. In particular, if EE satisfies the strongest type of (RDP), the representing Borel probability measure can be uniquely chosen to have its support in the set of the extreme points of $K.
