Order preserving transformations of the Hilbert grassmannian

Let $H$ be a separable real Hilbert space. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{\infty}(H)$ the Grassmannian consisting of closed subspaces with infinite dimension and codimension. This Grassmannian is partially ordered by the inclusion relation. We show that every order preserving transformation of ${\mathcal{G}}_{\mathrm{\infty }}(H)$ can be extended to an automorphism of the lattice of closed subspaces of $H$. It follows from Mackey’s result \cite{Mackey} that automorphisms of this lattice are induced by invertible bounded linear operators.
