Description | The existence of states and probabilities on effect algebras as logical structures when events may be non-compatible, unsharp, fuzzy or imprecise is still an open question. Only a few families of effect algebras possessing states are known. We are going to show some families of effect algebras, the existence of a pseudocomplementation on which implies the existence of states. Namely, those are Archimedean atomic lattice effect algebras, which are sharply dominating or s-compactly generated or extendable to complete lattice effect algebras. |
