The concept of a $\lambda$-lattice was introduced by V. Sn\'a\v sel in order to generalize some lattice concepts for directed posets whose elements need not have suprema or infima. We extend the concept of semimodularity from lattices to…
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…
We study moduli spaces of (semi-)stable representations of one-point extensions of quivers by rigid representations. This class of moduli spaces unifies Grassmannians of subrepresentations of rigid representations and moduli spaces of…
A classical result of R.\,P. Dilworth states that every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite lattice~$L$. A~sharper form was published in G.~Gr\"atzer and E.\,T. Schmidt in 1962, adding…
The Birkhoff polytope $B_n$ is the convex hull of all $n\times n$ permutation matrices in $\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$. We compute the combinatorial symmetry group of the Birkhoff polytope. A representation polytope is the convex hull of some…
A positroid is the matroid of a real matrix with nonnegative maximal minors, a positroid variety is the closure of the locus of points in a complex Grassmannian whose matroid is a fixed positroid, and a positroid class is the cohomology…
In a 1998 paper with H. Lakser, the authors proved that every finite distributive lattice $D$ can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite \emph{semimodular lattice}. Some ten years later, the first author and E. Knapp proved a…
We present a matrix-theoretic approach for studying and enumerating finite posets through their incidence representations, referred to as poset matrices. Naturally labelled posets are encoded as Boolean lower triangular matrices, allowing a…
We prove a Fundamental Theorem of Finite Semidistributive Lattices (FTFSDL), modelled on Birkhoff's Fundamental Theorem of Finite Distributive Lattices. Our FTFSDL is of the form "A poset L is a finite semidistributive lattice if and only…
A notion of generalized $n$-semimodularity is introduced, which extends that of (sub/super)mod\-ularity in four ways at once. The main result of this paper, stating that every generalized $(n\colon\!2)$-semimodular function on the $n$th…
A lattice polytope $P$ is called IDP if any lattice point in its $k$th dilate is a sum of $k$ lattice points in $P$. In 1991 Stanley proved a strong inequality in Ehrhart theory for IDP lattice polytopes. We show that his conclusion holds…
A specialization semilattice is a structure which can be embedded into $(\mathcal P(X), \cup, \sqsubseteq )$, where $X$ is a topological space, $ x \sqsubseteq y$ means $x \subseteq Ky$, for $x,y \subseteq X$, and $K$ is closure in $X$.…
We show that all finite lattices, including non-distributive lattices, arise as stable matching lattices when all agents have path-independent choice functions. This result answers an open question of Blair~\cite{blair1988lattice}. In the…
Garret Birkhoff observed that any binary relation between two sets determines a Galois connection between the powersets, or equivalently, closure operators on the powersets, or equivalently, complete lattices of subsets that are dually…
A hemiimplicative semilattice is a bounded semilattice $(A, \wedge, 1)$ endowed with a binary operation $\to$, satisfying that for every $a, b, c \in A$, $a \leq b \to c$ implies $a \wedge b \leq c$ (that is to say, one of the conditionals…
We describe the image of general families of two-dimensional representations over compact semi-local rings. Applying this description to the family carried by the universal Hecke algebra acting on the space of modular forms of level $N$…
I prove the existence, and describe the structure, of moduli space of pairs $(p,\Theta)$ consisting of a projective variety $P$ with semiabelian group action and an ample Cartier divisor on it satisfying a few simple conditions. Every…
We study the relationships among existing results about representations of distributive semilattices by ideals in dimension groups, von Neumann regular rings, C*-algebras, and complemented modular lattices. We prove additional…
In a capacitated directed graph, it is known that the set of all min-cuts forms a distributive lattice [1], [2]. Here, we describe this lattice as a regular predicate whose forbidden elements can be advanced in constant parallel time after…
The concept of a sectionally pseudocomplemented lattice was introduced by I. Chajda as an extension of relative pseudocomplementation for not necessarily distributive lattices. The typical example of such a lattice is the non-modular…
