Abstract

We briefly survey some recent results describing the general form of various symmetries of effect algebras. In particular, we outline some of the proof techniques and list a few most interesting open problems. A finite-dimensional version of classical Ludwig’s characterization of ortho-order automorphisms of effect algebras is proved in the absence of the bijectivity assumption.
