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…
By a 1997 result of R. Freese, an $n$-element lattice has at most $2^{n-1}$ congruences. This motivates us to define the congruence density cd$(L)$ of a finite $n$-element lattice as $|$Con$(L)|/2^{n-1}$, where $|$Con$(L)|$ is the number of…
Motivated by a recent paper of G. Gr\"atzer, a finite distributive lattice $D$ is said to be fully principal congruence representable if for every subset $Q$ of $D$ containing $0$, $1$, and the set $J(D)$ of nonzero join-irreducible…
As the main achievement of the paper, we construct a three-generated, 2-distributive, atomless lattice that is not finitely presented. Also, the paper contains the following three observations. First, every coatomless three-generated…
In this article we introduce the study of the number of pairs of non-comparable elements in a distributive lattice $\L$. We give several tight lower and upper bounds for the number and give as an application the lattices precisely for which…
We consider the convex subset $[A,B]$ of all elements between two levels $A$ and $B$ of a finite distributive lattice, as a union of (or covered by) intervals $[a,b]$. A 1988 result of Voigt and Wegener shows that for such convex subsets of…
A Lattice is a partially ordered set where both least upper bound and greatest lower bound of any pair of elements are unique and exist within the set. K\"{o}tter and Kschischang proved that codes in the linear lattice can be used for error…
A lattice L is slim if it is finite and the set of its join-irreducible elements contains no three-element antichain. Slim, semimodular lattices were previously characterized by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt as the duals of the lattices…
Meet-distributive lattices form an intriguing class of lattices, because they are precisely the lattices obtainable from a closure operator with the so-called anti-exchange property. Moreover, meet-distributive lattices are join…
In a finite distributive lattice $\L$ we define two functions $s(\alpha)=|\{\delta \in \mathcal{L} | \delta \leq \alpha \}|$ and $l(\alpha)=|\{\delta \in \mathcal{L} | \delta \geq \alpha \}|$. In this present article we prove that the sum…
Unitally nondistributive quantales are unital quantales such that the unit is approximable by the totally below relation and does not meet-distribute over arbitrary joins. It is shown that the underlying nondistributive complete lattice…
A distributive lattice $L$ with minimum element $0$ is called decomposable if $a$ and $b$ are not comparable elements in $L$ then there exist $\overline{a},\overline{b}\in L$ such that $a=\overline{a}\vee(a\wedge b),…
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…
A group $G$ is said to have dense ${\cal CD}$-subgroups if each non-empty open interval of the subgroup lattice $L(G)$ contains a subgroup in the Chermak--Delgado lattice ${\cal CD}(G)$. In this note, we study finite groups satisfying this…
The sets of all neutral, distributive and lower-modular elements of the lattice of semigroup varieties are finite, countably infinite and uncountably infinite, respectively. In 2018, we established that there are precisely three neutral…
A distributive lattice structure ${\mathbf M}(G)$ has been established on the set of perfect matchings of a plane bipartite graph $G$. We call a lattice {\em matchable distributive lattice} (simply MDL) if it is isomorphic to such a…
We answer three questions posed in a paper by Babson and Benjamini. They introduced a parameter $C_G$ for Cayley graphs $G$ that has significant application to percolation. For a minimal cutset of $G$ and a partition of this cutset into two…
The Chermak-Delgado lattice of a finite group is a modular, self-dual sublattice of the lattice of subgroups of $G$. The least element of the Chermak-Delgado lattice of $G$ is known as the Chermak-Delgado subgroup of $G$. This paper…
A simple but elegant result of Rival states that every sublattice $L$ of a finite distributive lattice $\mathcal{P}$ can be constructed from $\mathcal{P}$ by removing a particular family $\mathcal{I}_L$ of its irreducible intervals.…
The maximal index of a Euclidean lattice L of dimension n is the maximal index of the sub-lattices of L spanned by n independent minimal vectors of L. In this paper, we prove that a perfect lattice of maximal index two not provided by a…
