Probability over Plonka sums of Boolean algebras: states, metrics and topology

Abstract

The paper introduces the notion of state for involutive bisemilattices, a variety which plays the role of algebraic counterpart of paraconsistent weak Kleene logic and whose elements are represented as Plonka sum of Boolean algebras. We investigate the relations between states over an involutive bisemilattice and probability measures over the (Boolean) algebras in the Plonka sum representation and, the direct limit of these algebras. Moreover, we study completition of involutive bisemilattices, as pseudometric spaces, and the topology induced by the pseudometric.
