✦ Synopsis

Within the theory of belief functions Dempster's rule of combination is of particular importance for the integration of different bodies of evidence. In this article a set of axioms is presented that uniquely determines this rule. As the axioms reflect just the intuitive idea of partially moveable evidence masses the presented results emphasize the unicity of Dempster's rule.

## Abstract In the last twenty years, a theory of real Jordan triples has been developed. In 1994 T. Dang and B. Russo introduced the concept of J\*B–triple. These J\*B–triples include real C\*–algebras and complex JB\*–triples. However, concerning J\*B–triples, an important problem was left open.
