  States of MV-algebras have been the object of intensive study and attempts of
generalizations. The aim of this contribution is to provide a preliminary
investigation for states of prelinear semihoops and hyperstates of algebras in
the variety generated by perfect and involutive MTL-algebras (IBP0-algebras for
short). Grounding on a recent result showing that IBP0-algebras can be
constructed from a Boolean algebra, a prelinear semihoop and a suitably defined
operator between them, our first investigation on states of prelinear semihoops
will support and justify the notion of hyperstate for IBP0- algebras and will
actually show that each such map can be represented by a probability measure on
its Boolean skeleton, and a state on a suitably defined abelian l-group.
