Stone duality for real-valued multisets

In joint work with E. Dubuc and D. Mundici, the first author extended Stone duality for boolean algebras to locally finite MV-algebras. On the topological side of the duality, one has to assign to each point of a boolean space a generalized natural number by way of a multiplicity, so as to make the...

Dubuc and D. Mundici, the first author extended Stone duality for boolean algebras to locally finite MV-algebras. On the topological side of the duality, one has to assign to each point of a boolean space a generalized natural number by way of a multiplicity, so as to make the assignment continuous with respect to the Scott topology of the lattice of generalized natural numbers.

description In joint work with E. Dubuc and D. Mundici, the first author extended Stone duality for boolean algebras to locally finite MV-algebras. On the topological side of the duality, one has to assign to each point of a boolean space a generalized natural number by way of a multiplicity, so as to make the assignment continuous with respect to the Scott topology of the lattice of generalized natural numbers. The continuous maps between such generalized multisets are to be multiplicity-decreasing with respect to the divisibility order of generalized natural numbers. In this paper we extend these results to the class of MV-algebras that are locally weakly finite, i.e., such that all their finitely generated subalgebras split into a finite direct product of simple MV-algebras. Using the Scott topology on the lattice of subalgebras of the real unit interval [0, 1] (regarded with its natural MV-algebraic structure), we construct a 'real-valued multiset' over the (boolean) space of maximal ideals of a locally weakly finite MV-algebra. Building on this, we obtain a duality for locally weakly finite MV-algebras that includes as a special case the above-mentioned duality for locally finite MV-algebras. We give an example that shows that the duality established in this paper via the Scott topology cannot be extended, without non-trivial modifications, to larger classes of algebras. © de Gruyter 2012.
