Information-theoretic principle entails orthomodularity of a lattice
Alexei Grinbaum · HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe) · 2005
Quantum logical axiomatic systems for quantum theory usually include a postulate that a lattice under consideration is orthomodular. We propose a derivation of orthomodularity from an information-theoretic axiom. This provides conceptual clarity and removes a long-standing puzzle about the meaning of orthomodularity. 1
