Yosida-Hewitt and Lebesgue decompositions of states on orthomodular posets (Q5929368)

Following some ideas of Rüttimann the authors investigate decompositions of states on an orthomodular poset \(L\) from a geometrical point of view. It is studied existence and uniqueness of decompositions \(m= ta+ (1-t)b\) of a state \(m\) of the state space \(\Omega(L)\) as a convex combination of a state \(a\) belonging to a face \(D\) of \(\Omega(L)\) and a state \(b\) belonging to the ``complementary set'' \(D^{\#}\). For particular choices of \(D\) the Lebesgue decomposition or the Yosida-Hewitt decomposition are obtained.
