Received 3 October 2008.

We present a topological approach to the study of measures on MV-algebras. These measures generalize, in the terminology of Butnariu and Klement (D. Butnariu and E. P. Klement. Triangular Norm based Measures and Games with Fuzzy Coalitions. Kluver, Dordrecht, 1993), T{infty}-valuations on clans of fuzzy sets.

Keywords: topological MV-algebras; measures; Lebesgue decomposition; Hammer-Sobczyk decomposition; Vitali-Hahn-Saks theorem; Nikodym boundedness theorem; Lyapunov theorem

1This article was presented at the conference ‘ManyVal’08’ held at Milano (Italy) during 19–21 May 2008.
