Finite smooth digraphs, that is, finite directed graphs without sources and sinks, can be partially ordered via pp-constructability. We give a complete description of this poset and, in particular, we prove that it is a distributive…
The Riesz distribution for real normed division algebras is derived in this work. Then two versions of these distributions are proposed and some of their properties are studied.
We restate a process presented by Stanley as a technique to prove that there exists exactly one $d$-differential distributive lattice for any positive integer $d$. This process can be trivially extended to apply to distributive finitary…
We focus on two important classes of lattices, the well-rounded and the cyclic. We show that every well-rounded lattice in the plane is similar to a cyclic lattice, and use this cyclic parameterization to count planar well-rounded…
Qualitative calculi play a central role in representing and reasoning about qualitative spatial and temporal knowledge. This paper studies distributive subalgebras of qualitative calculi, which are subalgebras in which (weak) composition…
We devise exact conditions under which a join semilattice with a weak contact relation can be semilattice embedded into a Boolean algebra with an overlap contact relation, equivalently, into a distributive lattice with additive contact…
We prove a lemma, which we call the Order Ideal Lemma, that can be used to demonstrate a wide array of log-concavity and log-convexity results in a combinatorial manner using order ideals in distributive lattices. We use the Order Ideal…
Starting from a master equation, we derive the evolution equation for the size distribution of elements in an evolving system, where each element can grow, divide into two, and produce new elements. We then probe general solutions of the…
We study compatible aggregation functions on a general bounded distributive lattice $L$, where the compatibility is related to the congruences on $L$. As a by-product, a new proof of an earlier result of G. Gr\"atzer is obtained. Moreover,…
Let the finite distributive lattice $D$ be isomorphic to the congruence lattice of a finite lattice $L$. Let $Q$ denote those elements of $D$ that correspond to principal congruences under this isomorphism. Then $Q$ contains $0,1 \in D$ and…
This article focuses on the relationship between pseudo-t-norms and the structure of lattices. First, we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a left-continuous t-norm on the ordinal sum of two disjoint…
The lattice dynamics of coesite has been studied by a combination of diffuse x-ray scattering, inelastic x-ray scattering and an ab initio lattice dynamics calculation. The combined technique gives access to the full lattice dynamics in…
We utilize the Bruns-Lakser completion to introduce Bruns-Lakser towers of a meet-semilattice. This machinery enables us to develop various hierarchies inside the class of bounded distributive lattices, which measure $\kappa$-degrees of…
We give two sufficient conditions for the lattice Co(R^n,X) of relatively convex sets of n-dimensional real space R^n to be join-semidistributive, where X is a finite union of segments. We also prove that every finite lower bounded lattice…
We study the multiplication operation of square matrices over lattices. If the underlying lattice is distributive, then matrices form a semigroup; we investigate idempotent and nilpotent elements and the maximal subgroups of this matrix…
We investigate the representation of lattices as sublattices of the lattice of all convex subsets (intervals) of a linearly ordered set $(X,\le)$. We introduce the purely lattice-theoretic notion of a \textit{loc-lattice} and prove that…
We propose an algebraic and a geometric classification of euclidean isodual lattices of fixed rank. First, we prove that these lattices are distribued according to a finite number of algebraic types. Second, we show that they are…
Let $L$ be a lattice. We call a congruence relation $\gQ$ of $L$ isoform, if any two congruence classes of $\gQ$ are isomorphic (as lattices). Let us call the lattice $L$ isoform, if all congruences of $L$ are isoform. G. Gr\"atzer and…
In the second edition of the congruence lattice book, Problem 22.1 asks for a characterization of subsets $Q$ of a finite distributive lattice $D$ such that there is a finite lattice $L$ whose congruence lattice is isomorphic to $D$ and…
Covering is a common type of data structure and covering-based rough set theory is an efficient tool to process this data. Lattice is an important algebraic structure and used extensively in investigating some types of generalized rough…
