States on pseudo effect algebras and integrals

We show that every state on an interval pseudo effect algebra $E$ satisfying some kind of the Riesz Decomposition Properties (RDP) is an integral through a regular Borel probability measure defined on the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of a Choquet simplex $K$. In particular, if $E$ satisfies the strongest type of (RDP), the representing Borel probability measure can be uniquely chosen to have its support in the set of the extreme points of $K.

The Lattice and Simplex Structure of States on Pseudo Effect Algebras

We study states, measures, and signed measures on pseudo effect algebras with some kind of the Riesz Decomposition Property, (RDP). We show that the set of all Jordan signed measures is always an Abelian Dedekind complete $\ell$-group. Therefore, the state space of the pseudo effect algebra with (RDP) is either empty or a nonempty Choquet simplex or even a Bauer simplex. This will allow represent states on pseudo effect algebras by standard integrals

Smearing of Observables and Spectral Measures on Quantum Structures

An observable on a quantum structure is any $\sigma$-homomorphism of quantum structures from the Borel $\sigma$-algebra of the real line into the quantum structure which is in our case a monotone $\sigma$-complete effect algebras with the Riesz Decomposition Property. We show that every observable is a smearing of a sharp observable which takes values from a Boolean $\sigma$-subalgebra of the effect algebra, and we prove that for every element of the effect algebra there is its spectral measure

Loomis--Sikorski Theorem and Stone Duality for Effect Algebras with Internal State

Recently Flaminio and Montagna, \cite{FlMo}, extended the language of MV-algebras by adding a unary operation, called a state-operator. This notion is introduced here also for effect algebras. Having it, we generalize the Loomis--Sikorski Theorem for monotone $\sigma$-complete effect algebras with internal state. In addition, we show that the category of divisible state-morphism effect algebras satisfying (RDP) and countable interpolation with an order determining system of states is dual to the category of Bauer simplices $\Omega$ such that $\partial_e \Omega$ is an F-space

Logical equivalence between generalized urn models and finite automata

To every generalized urn model there exists a finite (Mealy) automaton with identical propositional calculus. The converse is true as well.Comment: 9 pages, minor change

Sharp and fuzzy observables on effect algebras

Observables on effect algebras and their fuzzy versions obtained by means of confidence measures (Markov kernels) are studied. It is shown that, on effect algebras with the (E)-property, given an observable and a confidence measure, there exists a fuzzy version of the observable. Ordering of observables according to their fuzzy properties is introduced, and some minimality conditions with respect to this ordering are found. Applications of some results of classical theory of experiments are considered.Comment: 23 page
