Covering-based rough set theory is a useful tool to deal with inexact, uncertain or vague knowledge in information systems. Geometric lattice has widely used in diverse fields, especially search algorithm design which plays important role…
The reduction of covering decision systems is an important problem in data mining, and covering-based rough sets serve as an efficient technique to process the problem. Geometric lattices have been widely used in many fields, especially…
We introduce a canonical operator-theoretic construction associated to a finite geometric lattice, in which a simple nonassociative ``diamond product'' on the lattice basis gives rise to a family of creation operators indexed by atoms and a…
We are interested in expanding our understanding of symplectic matroids by exploring the properties of a class of symplectic matroids with a "lattice of flats". Taking a well-behaved family of subdivisions of the cross polytope we obtain a…
This paper first gives a necessary and sufficient condition that a lattice $L$ can be represented as the collection of all up-sets of a poset. Applying the condition, it obtains a necessary and sufficient condition that a lattice can be…
A mixed lattice is a lattice-type structure consisting of a set with two partial orderings, and generalizing the notion of a lattice. Mixed lattice theory has previously been studied in various algebraic structures, such as groups and…
The lattice of partitions of a set and its d-divisible generalization have been much studied for their combinatorial, topological, and representation-theoretic properties. An ordered set partition is a set partition where the subsets are…
We construct a family of independent sets for finite, atomic, and graded lattices, extending the well-known cryptomorphism between geometric lattices and matroids. This construction leads to an embedding theorem into geometric lattices that…
We show that every finite semilattice can be represented as an atomized semilattice, an algebraic structure with additional elements (atoms) that extend the semilattice's partial order. Each atom maps to one subdirectly irreducible…
Lattices induced by coverings arise naturally in matroid theory and combinatorial optimization, providing a structured framework for analyzing relationships between independent sets and closures. In this paper, we explore the structural…
This article investigates atomic decompositions in geometric lattices isomorphic to the partition lattice $\Pi(X)$ of a finite set $X$, a fundamental structure in lattice theory and combinatorics. We explore the role of atomicity in these…
We study the closure operators of polymatroids from a lattice theoretic point of view. We show that polymatroid closure operators relate to lattices enriched with a generating set in the same way that matroids relate to geometric lattices.…
Rough sets are efficient for data pre-processing in data mining. Matroids are based on linear algebra and graph theory, and have a variety of applications in many fields. Both rough sets and matroids are closely related to lattices. For a…
We introduce a graph structure on Euclidean polytopes. The vertices of this graph are the $d$-dimensional polytopes contained in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and its edges connect any two polytopes that can be obtained from one another by either…
The intersection data of a hyperplane arrangement is described by a geometric lattice, or equivalently a simple matroid. There is a rich interplay between this combinatorial structure and the topology of the arrangement complement. In this…
Since Henrik Strietz's 1975 paper proving that the lattice Part($n$) of all partitions of an $n$-element finite set is four-generated, more than half a dozen papers have been devoted to four-element generating sets of this lattice. We prove…
The intrinsic connection between lattice theory and topology is fairly well established, For instance, the collection of open subsets of a topological subspace always forms a distributive lattice. Persistent homology has been one of the…
For a partially ordered set P, we denote by Co(P) the lattice of order-convex subsets of P. We find three new lattice identities, (S), (U), and (B), such that the following result holds. Theorem. Let L be a lattice. Then L embeds into some…
Consider the noncrossing set partitions of an $n$-element set which either do not contain the block $\{n-1,n\}$, or which do not contain the singleton block $\{n\}$ whenever $1$ and $n-1$ are in the same block. In this article we study the…
Every lattice is isomorphic to a lattice whose elements are sets of sets, and whose operations are intersection and an operation extending the union of two sets of sets A and B by the set of all sets in which the intersection of an element…
