Blocks in homogeneous effect algebras and MV-algebras. (English) Zbl 1065.06007
The author clarifies the relations between numerous notions in effect algebras: various definitions of compatibility, several conditions generalizing lattice-ordered effect algebras, etc. Particular attention is paid to the question of when an effect algebra can be covered by MV-algebras (blocks) and to the relation between $$m$$-completeness conditions for algebras, resp. their blocks. The paper is very useful because it supports orientation in numerous recent papers on related subjects.
