Abstract

In 2020 Bhavale and Waphare introduced the concept of a nullity of a poset as nullity of its cover graph. According to Bhavale and Waphare, if a dismantlable lattice of nullity k contains r reducible elements then 2 \leq r \leq 2k. In 2003 Pawar and Waphare counted all non-isomorphic lattices with equal number of elements and edges, which are precisely the lattices of nullity one. Recently, Bhavale and Aware counted all non-isomorphic lattices on n elements having nullity up to two. Bhavale and Aware also counted all non-isomorphic lattices on n elements, containing up to three reducible elements, having nullity k \geq 2. In this paper, we count up to isomorphism the class of all lattices on n elements containing four comparable reducible elements, and having nullity three.
