An Intrisic Topology for Orthomodular Lattices
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a general way to define a topology on orthomodular lattices. We show that in the case of a Hilbert lattice, this topology is equivalent to that induced by the metrics of the corresponding Hilbert space. Moreover, we show that in the case of a boolean algebra, the obtained topology is the discrete one. Thus, our construction provides a general tool for studying orthomodular lattices but also a way to distinguish classical and quantum logics.

Orthomodular lattices with fully nontrivial commutators
An orthomodular lattice L is said to have fully nontrivial commutator if the commutator of any pair x, y ∈ L is different from zero. In this note we consider the class of all orthomodular lattices with fully nontrivial commutators. We show that this class forms a quasivariety, we describe it in terms of quasiidentities and situate important types of orthomodular lattices (free lattices, Hilbert...
متن کاملEpimorphisms in Certain Varieties of Algebras
We prove a lemma which, under restrictive conditions, shows that epimorphisms in V are surjective if this is true for epimorphisms from irreducible members of V . This lemma is applied to varieties of orthomodular lattices which are generated by orthomodular lattices of bounded height, and to varieties of orthomodular lattices which are generated by orthomodular lattices which are the horizonta...
متن کاملOrthomodular Lattices with Rich State Spaces Orthomodular Lattices with Rich State Spaces
We introduce a new construction technique for orthomodular lattices. In contrast to the preceding constructions, it admits rich spaces of states (=probability measures), i.e., for each pair of incomparable elements a; c there is a state s such that s(a) = 1 > s(c). This allowed a progress in many questions that were open for a long time; among others we prove that there is a continuum of variet...
متن کاملOn interval homogeneous orthomodular lattices
An orthomodular lattice L is said to be interval homogeneous (resp. centrally interval homogeneous) if it is σ-complete and satisfies the following property: Whenever L is isomorphic to an interval, [a, b], in L then L is isomorphic to each interval [c, d] with c ≤ a and d ≥ b (resp. the same condition as above only under the assumption that all elements a, b, c, d are central in L). Let us den...
متن کاملOn the Lattice of Orthomodular Logics
The upper part of the lattice of orthomodular logics is described. In [1] and [2] Bruns and Kalmbach have described the lower part of the lattice of varieties of orthomodular lattices. They proved that any variety of orthomodular lattices essentially larger than variety generated by a contains at least one of lattices b, c, d, e. (By a, b, c, d, e, f , g we denote the lattice depicted in respec...
