Abstract

We study the computational complexity of satisfiability problems for classes of simple finite height (ortho)complemented modular lattices LL. For single finite LL, these problems are shown tobe \mcNP\mc{NP}-complete; for LL of height at least 33, equivalent to a feasibility problem for the division ring associated with LL. Moreover, it is shown that the equational theory of the class of subspace ortholattices as well as endomorphism *-rings (with pseudo-inversion) of finite dimensional Hilbert spaces is complete for the complement of the Boolean part of the nondeterministic Blum-Shub-Smale model of real computation without constants. This results extends to the category of finite dimensional Hilbert spaces, enriched by pseudo-inversion.
