Abstract

A well known fact is that there is a finite orthomodular lattice with an order determining set of states which is not order embeddable into the standard quantum logic, the lattice L(𝓗) of all closed subspaces of a separable complex Hilbert space.

We show that a finite generalized effect algebra is order embeddable into the standard effect algebra E(𝓗) of effects of a separable complex Hilbert space iff it has an order determining set of generalized states iff it is order embeddable into the power of a finite MV-chain.

As an application we obtain an algorithm, which is based on the simplex algorithm, deciding whether such an order embedding exists and, if the answer is positive, constructing it.
