categorical equivalence; bounded \BCK-algebra; \MV-algebra; \DRl-semigroup
Summary:
In the paper it is proved that the category of \MV-algebras is equivalent to the category of bounded \DRl-semigroups satisfying the identity $1-(1-x)=x$. Consequently, by a result of D. Mundici, both categories are equivalent to the category of bounded commutative \BCK-algebras.
