Abstract

We know that each effect algebra EE is isomorphic to π(X)\pi(X) for some EE-test spaces (X,T)(X,{\cal T}).We describe when π(x)π(y)\pi(x)\lor \pi(y) and π(x)π(y)\pi(x)\land\pi(y) exists for x,yE(X,T)x,y\in{\cal E}(X,{\cal T}). Moreover we give the formula for π(x)π(x)\pi(x)\lor\pi(x) and π(x)π(y)\pi(x)\land\pi(y) using only x,yx,y and tests which are elements of T{\cal T}. We obtain an example of finite, not homogeneous effect algebra EE such that sharp elements of EE form a lattice, whereas EE is not a lattice.
