Abstract: Some functional representation theorems for monadic $n$-valued Lukasiewicz algebras (qLk$_{n}$-algebras, for short) are given. Bearing in mind some of the results established by G. Georgescu and C. Vraciu (Algebre Boole monadice si algebre Lukasiewicz monadice, Studii Cercet. Mat. 23 (1971), 1027-1048) and P. Halmos (Algebraic Logic, Chelsea, New York, 1962), two functional representation theorems for qLk$_{n}$-algebras are obtained. Besides, rich qLk$_{n}$-algebras are introduced and characterized. In addition, a third theorem for these algebras is presented and the relationship between the three theorems is shown.
Keywords: monadic $n$-valued Lukasiewicz algebra, monadic Boolean algebra
