If a Boolean algebra A contains n atoms (the Greechie diagram of A consists of n vertices lying on one line), then A is isomorfic to the power set of a set with n elements, thus the cardinality of A is 2 n. 5 / 37

26 MV-algebra pasting Short time after D-posets (effect algebras ) were discovered (1994), the attempts have arisen to generalize the method of the pasting in order to construct miscellaneous examples of difference posets. These efforts were successful only after Riečanová proved that every lattice-ordered effect algebra (D-lattice) is a set-theoretical union of maximal sub-d-lattices of pairwise compatible elements, i.e. maximal sub-mv-algebras.
