MV-algebras; mv-function; epimorphism
Summary:
MV-algebras were introduced by Chang to prove the completeness of the infinite-valued Łukasiewicz propositional calculus. Recently, algebraic theory of MV-algebras has been intensively studied. Wajsberg algebras are just a reformulation of Chang MV-algebras where implication is used instead of disjunction. Using these equivalence, in this paper we provide conditions for the existence of an epimorphism between two finite MV-algebras $A$ and $B$. Specifically, we define the mv-functions with domain in the ordered set of prime elements of $B$ and with range in the ordered set of prime elements of $A$, and prove that every epimorphism from $A$ to $B$ can be uniquely constructed from an mv-function.
