Abstract

We continue the algebraic investigation of PBZ*-lattices, a notion introduced in Giuntini et al. (Stud. Logica 104, 1145–1177, 2016) in order to obtain insights into the structure of certain algebras of effects of a Hilbert space, lattice-ordered under the spectral ordering.

Notes

  1. That the spectral ordering is indeed a lattice ordering has been essentially shown by Olson [18] and de Groote [14], who also proved that it coincides with the more familiar ordering of effects induced via the trace functional when both orderings are restricted to the set of projection operators of the same Hilbert space. The same ordering has also been given an algebraic treatment, in a different context, in [10].

  2. We acknowledge here G. Cattaneo’s insightful comments on [12], which we received after the paper itself had gone into its production stage.
