The moduli space of triangles is a two-dimensional space that records triangle shapes in the plane, considered up to similarity. We study the subset corresponding to \textit{lattice triangles}, which are triangles whose vertices have…
We establish Schmutz Schaller's conjecture that the hexagonal lattice is `better' than the square lattice. Schmutz Schaller (Bulletin of the AMS 35 (1998), p. 201), motivated by considerations from hyperbolic geometry, conjectured that in…
Let Q(u,v) be a positive definite binary quadratic form with arbitrary real coefficients. For large real x, one may ask for the number B(x) of primitive lattice points (integer points (m,n) with gcd(m,n) = 1) in the ellipse disc Q(u,v) < x,…
A lattice equable quadrilateral is a quadrilateral in the plane whose vertices lie on the integer lattice and which is equable in the sense that its area equals its perimeter. This paper treats the tangential and extangential cases. We show…
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…
Wigner limits are given formally as the difference between a lattice sum, associated to a positive definite quadratic form, and a corresponding multiple integral. To define these limits, which arose in work of Wigner on the energy of static…
A lattice path in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\nu_2,\ldots,\nu_k\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the steps $\nu_i-\nu_{i-1}$ lie in a subset $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for all $i=2,\ldots,k$. Let $T_{m,n}$ be the $m\times n$ table in…
Let $\Lambda$ be a lattice in $\R^n$, and let $Z\subseteq \R^{m+n}$ be a definable family in an o-minimal structure over $\R$. We give sharp estimates for the number of lattice points in the fibers $Z_T={x\in \R^n: (T,x)\in Z}$. Along the…
In 2009, G. Gr\"atzer and E. Knapp proved that every planar semimodular lattice has a rectangular extension. We prove that, under reasonable additional conditions, this extension is unique. This theorem naturally leads to a hierarchy of…
Partial answers are given to two questions. When does a lattice Lambda contain a sublattice Lambda' of index N that is geometrically similar to Lambda? When is the sublattice "clean", in the sense that the boundary of the Voronoi cells for…
A polygon is equable if its area is equal to its perimeter. A pair of polygons is an amicable pair if the area of the first is equal to the perimeter of the second, and vice versa. A polygon is a lattice polygon if its vertices lie on the…
For a slim, planar, semimodular lattice $L$ and covering square~$S$, G.~Cz\'edli and E.\,T.~Schmidt introduced the fork extension, $L[S]$, which is also a slim, planar, semimodular lattice. We investigate when a congruence of $L$ extends to…
We denote by Conc(L) the semilattice of all finitely generated congruences of a lattice L. For varieties (i.e., equational classes) V and W of lattices such that V is contained neither in W nor its dual, and such that every simple member of…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean 3-space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
For a planar integral lattice $L$, let $\nu(L)$ denote the square-free part of the integer $D(L)^2$, where $D(L)$ stands for the area of a fundamental parallelogram of $L$. For each odd integer $n$ with $3 \leq n<29$, a planar lattice $L$…
A rotational lattice is a structure (L;\vee,\wedge, g) where L=(L;\vee,\wedge) is a lattice and g is a lattice automorphism of finite order. We describe the subdirectly irreducible distributive rotational lattices. Using J\'onsson's lemma,…
In a recent paper, G. Cz\'edli and E.\,T. Schmidt present a structure theorem for planar semimodular lattices. In this note, we present an alternative proof.
In this article, we prove that finite semidistributive lattices are dismantlable if and only if they are planar. This extends a well-known result by Kelly and Rival that states the same property for finite distributive lattices. Moreover,…
A Teichmuller lattice is the orbit of a point in Teichmuller space under the action of the mapping class group. We show that the proportion of lattice points in a ball of radius r which are not pseudo-Anosov tends to zero as r tends to…
We call a lattice crosscut-simplicial if the crosscut complex of every atomic interval is equal to the boundary of a simplex. Every interval of such a lattice is either contractible or homotopy equivalent to a sphere. Recently, Hersh and…
