Quantum information as a non-Kolmogorovian generalization of Shannon's theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this article we discuss the formal structure of a generalized information theory based on the extension of the probability calculus of Kolmogorov to a (possibly) non-commutative setting.

Solvability of Generalized Orthomodular Lattices [PDF]

open access: yesPacific Journal of Mathematics, 1975
Suppose K is a given equational class of lattices (cf. I.26) and let ‵L be a lattice. Denote by E K (‵L) the set formed by those congruences T on ‵L for which ‵L/T∈K. Since ‵L/U∈K for the universal congruence U=L}L, E K (‵L) ≠ ∅. Define C K to be the intersection ∩{T; T∈E K (‵L)}. Then C K (‵L) is a congruence on ‵L. From I.25 we conclude that ‵L/C K (‵

Archimedean Atomic Lattice Effect Algebras with Complete Lattice of Sharp Elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study Archimedean atomic lattice effect algebras whose set of sharp elements is a complete lattice. We show properties of centers, compatibility centers and central atoms of such lattice effect algebras. Moreover, we prove that if such effect algebra $

Relatively orthomodular lattices

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2001
\textit{M.~F.~Janowitz} [``A note on generalized orthomodular lattices'', J. Nat. Sci. Math. 8, 89-94 (1968; Zbl 0169.02104)] defined a generalized orthomodular lattice (GOML) as a lattice with 0 and with an orthogonality relation (similar to that considered in orthomodular lattices (OMLs)).

Information-theoretic principle entails orthomodularity of a lattice

open access: yes, 2005
Quantum logical axiomatic systems for quantum theory usually include a postulate that a lattice under consideration is orthomodular. We propose a derivation of orthomodularity from an information-theoretic axiom.

The logic of causally closed spacetime subsets

open access: yes, 2002
The causal structure of space-time offers a natural notion of an opposite or orthogonal in the logical sense, where the opposite of a set is formed by all points non time-like related with it.

Scopes and Limits of Modality in Quantum Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We develop an algebraic frame for the simultaneous treatment of actual and possible properties of quantum systems. We show that, in spite of the fact that the language is enriched with the addition of a modal operator to the orthomodular structure ...

A presentation of Quantum Logic based on an "and then" connective

open access: yes, 2007
When a physicist performs a quantic measurement, new information about the system at hand is gathered. This paper studies the logical properties of how this new information is combined with previous information.

Quantum axiomatics and a theorem of M.P. Soler [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Three of the traditional quantum axioms (orthocomplementation, orthomodularity and the covering law) show incompatibilities with two products introduced by Aerts for the description of joint entities.

Commutators in Orthomodular Lattices

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 1985
The author introduces the notions of a ''commutator'' for a possibly infinite set of elements M of an orthomodular lattice L and ''partial compatible'' (p.c.) for M with respect to some element \(a\in C(M)\) such that \(\{\) \(m\wedge a|\) \(m\in M\}\) is Boolean. If M is p.c. for \(a\in L\) then \(a\leq com(M)\) and CC(M) is p.c.
