Abstract

AbstractA many‐valued sentential logic with truth values in an injective MV‐algebra is introduced and the axiomatizability of this logic is proved. The paper develops some ideas of Goguen and generalizes the results of Pavelka on the unit interval. The proof for completeness is purely algebraic. A corollary of the Completeness Theorem is that fuzzy logic on the unit interval is semantically complete if and only if the algebra of the truth values is a complete MV‐algebra. In the well‐defined fuzzy sentential logic holds the Compactness Theorem, while the Deduction Theorem and the Finiteness Theorem in general do not hold. Because of its generality and good‐behaviour, MV‐valued logic can be regarded as a mathematical basis of fuzzy reasoning.
