This paper has been digitized, optimized for electronic delivery and stamped with digital signature within the project DML-CZ: The Czech Digital Mathematics Library We show some families of lattice effect algebras (a common generalization of orthomod-ular lattices and MV-effect algebras) each element E of which has atomic center C(E) or the subset S(E) of all sharp elements, resp. the center of compatibility B(E) or every block M of E. The atomicity of E or its sub-lattice effect algebras C(E), S(E), B(E) and blocks M of E is very useful equipment for the investigations of its algebraic and topologi-cal properties, the existence or smearing of states on E, questions about isomorphisms and so. Namely we touch the families of complete lattice effect algebras, or lattice effect algebras with finitely many blocks, or complete atomic lattice effect algebra E with Hausdorff interval topology.
