Abstract
For MV-algebras (algebras of multivalued Lukasiewicz logics) we apply the same terminology and notation as in [3] and [8]. Retracts and retract mappings of abelian lattice ordered groups were studied in [4], cf. also [6], [7]; for the case of multilattice groups and cyclically ordered groups cf. [1] and [5]. To each MV-algebra ? there corresponds an abelian lattice ordered group G with a strong unit u such that (under the notation as in [8]), ? = ?0(G,u) (cf. also Section 1 below). In [2], a different (but equivalent) system of axioms for defining the notion of MV-algebra was applied; instead of ?0(G,u), the notation Γ(G,u) was used. In the present paper we investigate the relations between retract mappings of a projectable MV-algebra ? and the retract mappings of the corresponding lattice ordered group G.
