Atomicity and determinism in boolean systems

N. S. Kronfli

pp. 509-512

The logic of a Boolean system of finite degrees of freedom is shown to be atomic if and only if the system obeys a deterministic theory. This is, therefore, the physical meaning of atomicity. Furthermore, it is proved that nondeterminacy of such a system implies the nonexistence of phase space.
