Keywords:
Kalmbach measurability; Boolean algebra; orthomodular lattice
Summary:
In this note we show that, for an arbitrary orthomodular lattice $L$, when $\mu$ is a faithful, finite-valued outer measure on $L$, then the Kalmbach measurable elements of $L$ form a Boolean subalgebra of the centre of $L$.
