The straightening theorem for irreducible continuous lattices with minimal elements

Let LL be an irreducible and continuous lattice with minimal elements, and let nn be the cardinality of one of its affine references. An involutory anti-automorphism is a map :LL\perp:L\rightarrow L that is order-reversing and satisfies 2=idL\perp^2=\operatorname{id}_L. Straightening theorem. There exists an involutory anti-automorphism :LL\perp:L\rightarrow L such that (L,,)(L,\leq,\perp) is a factorial lattice of type InI_n. The conjecture proposes that these lattice-theoretic axioms suffice to recover the orthocomplementation and factorial WW^*-lattice structure associated with a finite-dimensional Hilbert lattice; the source presents it as the strongest result sought and does not report a proof.
