This study proposes \emph{modular arithmetic erasure channels} (MAECs), a novel class of erasure-like channels with an input alphabet that need not be binary. This class contains the binary erasure channel (BEC) and some other known erasure-like channels as special cases. For MAECs, we provide recursive formulas of Arıkan-like polar transform to simulate channel polarization. In other words, we show that the synthetic channels of MAECs are equivalent to other MAECs. This is a generalization of well-known recursive formulas of the polar transform for BECs. Using our recursive formulas, we also show that a recursive application of the polar transform for MAECs results in \emph{multilevel channel polarization,} which is an asymptotic phenomenon that is characteristic of non-binary polar codes. Specifically, we establish a method to calculate the limiting proportions of the partially noiseless and noisy channels that are generated as a result of multilevel channel polarization for MAECs. In the particular case of MAECs, this calculation method solves an open problem posed by Nasser (2017) in the study of non-binary polar codes.
