Review text

Let \(\varphi\) be a faithful semifinite normal weight on a countably decomposable von Neumann algebra \(R\), set \(M_ \varphi= \text{span} \{x\in \mathbb{R}^ +\): \(\varphi(x)< \infty\}\), and write \(P( M_ \varphi)\) for the set of projections in \(M_ \varphi\). The authors provide necessary and sufficient conditions for \(P( M_ \varphi)\) to be a lattice. They also answer the related question of when the identity of \(R\) can be expressed as the supremum of two members of \(P( M_ \varphi)\). Technical aspects of the proof relating to the center of \(R\) are dealt with a separate paper [Pac. J. Math. 147, No. 1, 81-121 (1991; Zbl 0745.46062)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0771.47022].
