Representation theorem for convex effect algebras

Stanley P. Gudder, Sylvia Pulmannová (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Effect algebras have important applications in the foundations of quantum mechanics and in fuzzy probability theory. An effect algebra that possesses a convex structure is called a convex effect algebra. Our main result shows that any convex effect algebra admits a representation as a generating initial interval of an ordered linear space. This result is analogous to a classical representation theorem for convex structures due to M.H. Stone.

Rotation indices related to Poncelet’s closure theorem

Waldemar Cieślak, Horst Martini, Witold Mozgawa (2015)

Annales UMCS, Mathematica

Let CRCr denote an annulus formed by two non-concentric circles CR, Cr in the Euclidean plane. We prove that if Poncelet’s closure theorem holds for k-gons circuminscribed to CRCr, then there exist circles inside this annulus which satisfy Poncelet’s closure theorem together with Cr, with ngons for any n > k.

Rotundity and smoothness of convex bodies in reflexive and nonreflexive spaces

Victor Klee, Libor Veselý, Clemente Zanco (1996)

Studia Mathematica

For combining two convex bodies C and D to produce a third body, two of the most important ways are the operation ∓ of forming the closure of the vector sum C+D and the operation γ̅ of forming the closure of the convex hull of C ⋃ D. When the containing normed linear space X is reflexive, it follows from weak compactness that the vector sum and the convex hull are already closed, and from this it follows that the class of all rotund bodies in X is stable with respect to the operation ∓ and the class...
