Some of our results hold in more general setting of vector lattices. We reprove and extend some theorems that have been recently shown by Kandi\\'{c} and \\v{S}ivic. In particular, we give a more transparent proof of their result that the unital algebra generated by positive idempotent matrices $E$ and $F$ such that $E F \\ge F E$ is equal to the linear span of the set $\\{I, E, F, E F, F E, E F E, F E F, (E F)^2, (F E)^2\\}$, and so its dimension is at most $9$. We give examples of two positive idempotent ma"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1710.08703","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
