Valuations in Nilpotent Minimum Logic

The Euler characteristic can be defined as a special kind of valuation on finite distributive lattices. This work begins with some brief consideration on the role of the Euler characteristic on NM algebras, the algebraic counterpart of Nilpotent Minimum logic. Then, we introduce a new valuation, a modified version of the Euler characteristic we call idempotent Euler characteristic. We show that the new valuation encodes information about the formulas in NM propositional logic.
