Abstract
An open problem in operator theory asks whether for a complete atomic Boolean subspace lattice $\ell$ the rank one subalgebra of Alg%\ell% is strong operator dense in Alg%\ell%. A very special case of this problem turns out to be equivalent to an open problem in the Theory of Bases. Here various related questions are surveyed and some positive results are given.
