We show that every σ-complete MV-algebra is an MV-σ-homomorphic image of some σ-complete MV- algebra of fuzzy sets, called a tribe, which is a system of fuzzy sets of a crisp set Ω containing 1Ω and closed under fuzzy complementation and formation of min {∑nfn, 1}. Since a tribe is a direct generalization of a σ-algebra of crisp subsets, the representation theorem is an analogue of the Loomis-Sikorski theorem for MV-algebras. In addition, this result will be extended also for Dedekind σ-complete ℓ-groups with strong unit.
An alternative approach is proposed to the basic definitions of the lassical lambda calculus. A proof is sketched of the equivalence of the approach with the classical case. The new formulation simplifies some aspects of the syntactic theory of the lambda calculus. In particular it provides a justification for omitting in syntactic theory discussion of changes of bound variable.
