For a class C of finite lattices, the question arises whether any lattice in C can be embedded into some atomistic, biatomic lattice in C. We provide answers to the question above for C being, respectively, --The class of all finite…
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…
This paper deals with lattices $(L,\Vert~\Vert)$ over polynomial rings, where $L$ is a finitely generated module over $k[t]$, the polynomial ring over the field $k$ in the indeterminate $t$, and $\Vert~\Vert$ is a discrete real-valued…
We announce various results concerning the structure of compactly generated simple locally compact groups. We introduce a local invariant, called the structure lattice, which consists of commensurability classes of compact subgroups with…
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…
We introduce a pointfree theory of convergence on lattices and coframes. A convergence lattice is a lattice $L$ with a monotonic map $\lim_L$ from the lattice of filters on $L$ to $L$, meant to be an abstract version of the map sending…
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 study the theory of convergence for CAT$(0)$-lattices (that is groups $\Gamma$ acting geometrically on proper, geodesically complete CAT$(0)$-spaces) and their quotients (CAT$(0)$-orbispaces). We describe some splitting and collapsing…
Let G be any locally compact, unimodular, metrizable group. The main result of this paper, roughly stated, is that if F<G is any finitely generated free group and \Gamma < G any lattice, then up to a small perturbation and passing to a…
We prove the following result: Let K be a lattice, let D be a distributive lattice with zero, and let $\phi$: Con K $\to$ D be a {∨, 0}-homomorphism, where Conc K denotes the {∨, 0}-semilattice of all finitely generated…
We study the multiplicative lattices L which satisfy the condition a = (a : (a : b))(a : b) for all a,b in L.
We prove that the very simple lattices which consist of a largest, a smallest and $2n$ pairwise incomparable elements where $n$ is a positive integer can be realized as the lattices of intermediate subfactors of finite index and finite…
Given a group $G$ and a subgroup $H$, we let $\mathcal{O}_G(H)$ denote the lattice of subgroups of $G$ containing $H$. This paper provides a classification of the subgroups $H$ of $G$ such that $\mathcal{O}_{G}(H)$ is Boolean of rank at…
Let A and B be arbitrary sets with at least two elements. The arity gap of a function f: A^n \to B is the minimum decrease in its essential arity when essential arguments of f are identified. In this paper we study the arity gap of…
This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…
We study the smallest convex lattice generated by a finite set of points. To analyze this structure, we introduce the notion of a point configuration, defined via the relative lattice. Under a suitable completeness condition, this lattice…
In various articles, it is said that the class of all soft topologies on a common universe forms a complete lattice, but in this paper, we prove that it is a complete lattice. Some soft topologies are maximal and some are minimal with…
A join-semilattice $L$ is said to be conjunctive if it has a top element $1$ and it satisfies the following first-order condition: for any two distinct $a,b\in L$, there is $c\in L$ such that either $a\vee c\not=1=b\vee c$ or $a\vee…
We characterize well-founded algebraic lattices by means of forbidden subsemilattices of the join-semilattice made of their compact elements. More specifically, we show that an algebraic lattice $L$ is well-founded if and only if $K(L)$,…
We use the structure lattice, introduced in Part I, to undertake a systematic study of the class $\mathscr S$ consisting of compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected locally compact groups that are non-discrete. Given…
