Abstract

Hájek introduced the logic \(BL_{vt}\) enriching the logic BL by a unary connective vt which is a formalization of Zadeh’s fuzzy truth value “very true”. \(\hbox{BL}_{vt}\) algebras, i.e., BL-algebras with unary operations, called vt-operators, which are among others subdiagonal, are an algebraic counterpart of \(BL_{vt}.\) Partially ordered commutative integral residuated monoids (pocrims) are common generalizations of both BL-algebras and Heyting algebras. The aim of our paper is to introduce and study algebraic properties of pocrims endowed by “very-true” and “very-false”-like operators.
