Given a lattice \Gamma in a locally compact group G and a closed subgroup H of G, one has a natural action of \Gamma on the homogeneous space V=H\G. For an increasing family of finite subsets {\Gamma_T: T>0}, a dense orbit v\Gamma, v\in V,…

Let $M$ be an uniformizable Anderson t-motive and $L(M)$ its lattice. First, we prove by an explicit construction that for the non-mixed $M$ the lattice map $M\mapsto L(M)$ is not injective. Second, we show that some lattices which do not…

The paper deals with special types of $L$-ordered set, $L$-fuzzy complete lattices, and fuzzy directed complete posets (fuzzy $dcpo$s). First, a theorem for constructing monotone maps is proved, a characterization for monotone maps on an…

This article is the second part of an essay dedicated to lattices freely generated by posets within a variety. The first part dealt with four easy varieties while this part is concerned with finitely generated varieties. Here we present a…

A planar semimodular lattice $L$ is \emph{slim} if $\mathbf{M}_3$ is not a sublattice of $L$. In a recent paper, G. Cz\'edli introduced a very powerful diagram type for slim, planar, semimodular lattices. This short note proves the…

For a finite lattice L, the congruence lattice Con L of L can be easily computed from the partially ordered set J(L) of join-irreducible elements of L and the join-dependency relation D\_L on J(L). We establish a similar version of this…

We prove that, under mild assumptions, a lattice in a product of semi-simple Lie group and a totally disconnected locally compact group is, in a certain sense, arithmetic. We do not assume the lattice to be finitely generated or the ambient…

Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…

For a closure space (P,f) with f(\emptyset)=\emptyset, the closures of open subsets of P, called the regular closed subsets, form an ortholattice Reg(P,f), extending the poset Clop(P,f) of all clopen subsets. If (P,f) is a finite convex…

Divergence functions of a metric space estimate the length of a path connecting two points $A$, $B$ at distance $\le n$ avoiding a large enough ball around a third point $C$. We characterize groups with non-linear divergence functions as…

We study the Lattice Isomorphism Problem (LIP), in which given two lattices L_1 and L_2 the goal is to decide whether there exists an orthogonal linear transformation mapping L_1 to L_2. Our main result is an algorithm for this problem…

One of the longstanding problems in universal algebra is the question of which finite lattices are isomorphic to the congruence lattices of finite algebras. This question can be phrased as which finite lattices can be represented as…

Suppose L and M are full-rank lattices in Euclidean space, such that vol(L) < vol(M). Answering a question of Han and Wang from 2001, we show how to construct a bounded measurable set F (we can even take F to be a finite union of polytopes)…

We provide a naturally isomorphic description of the persistence map from merge trees to barcodes in terms of a monotone map from the partition lattice to the subset lattice. Our description is local, which offers the potential to speed up…

Quasi-lattices are introduced in terms of 'join' and 'meet' operations. It is observed that quasi-lattices become lattices when these operations are associative and when these operations satisfy 'modularity' conditions. A fundamental…

Let $L$ be a lattice of full rank in $n$-dimensional real space. A vector in $L$ is called $i$-sparse if it has no more than $i$ nonzero coordinates. We define the $i$-th successive sparsity level of $L$, $s_i(L)$, to be the minimal $s$ so…

If Gamma is a nonuniform, irreducible lattice in a semisimple Lie group whose real rank is greater than 1, we show Gamma contains a subgroup that is isomorphic to a nonuniform, irreducible lattice in either SL(3,R), SL(3,C), or a direct…

For finite dimensional hermitean inner product spaces $V$, over $*$-fields $F$, and in the presence of orthogonal bases providing form elements in the prime subfield of $F$, we show that quantifier free definable relations in the subspace…

For an arbitrary partially ordered set $P$ its {\em dual} $P^*$ is built as the collection of all monotone mappings $P\to\2$ where $\2=\{0,1\}$ with $0<1$. The set of mappings $P^*$ is proved to be a complete lattice with respect to the…

We introduce the dimension monoid of a lattice L, denoted by Dim L. The monoid Dim L is commutative and conical, the latter meaning that the sum of any two nonzero elements is nonzero. Furthermore, Dim L is given along with the dimension…
