On Carathéodory vector lattices. (English) Zbl 1071.06009
Summary: To each generalized Boolean algebra $$B$$ there corresponds a vector lattice $$V$$; this correspondence goes back to Gofman. In general, $$B$$ cannot be uniquely reconstructed from $$V$$. In this paper we investigate pairs of generalized Boolean algebras $$B$$ and $$B'$$ which generate the same vector lattice $$V$$. Further, we deal with the relations between the internal direct product decompositions of $$V$$ and $$B$$.
