Abstract: For a pseudo $MV$-algebra $\Cal A$ we denote by $\ell(\Cal A)$ the underlying lattice of $\Cal A$. In the present paper we investigate the algebraic properties of maximal convex chains in $\ell(\Cal A)$ containing the element 0. We generalize a result of Dvurecenskij and Pulmannova.

Keywords: pseudo $MV$-algebra, convex chain, Archimedean property, direct product decomposition

Classification (MSC 2000): 06D35
