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…
In this note, I find a new property of the congruence lattice, Con$L$, of an SPS lattice $L$ (slim, planar, semimodular, where "slim" is the absence of~$\mathsf M_3$ sublattices) with more than $2$ elements: \emph{there are at least two…
Let \mathbb{F}_q^{n+l} denote the (n+l)-dimensional singular linear space over a finite field \mathbb{F}_q. For a fixed integer m\leq\min\{n,l\}, denote by \mathcal{L}^m_o(\mathbb{F}_q^{n+l}) the set of all subspaces of type (t,t_1), where…
Let $L$ be a lattice of full rank in $n$-dimensional real space. A vector in $L$ is called $i$-sparse if it has no more than $i$ nonzero coordinates. We define the $i$-th successive sparsity level of $L$, $s_i(L)$, to be the minimal $s$ so…
Patch lattices, introduced by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt in 2013, are the building stones for slim (and so necessarily finite and planar) semimodular lattices with respect to gluing. Slim semimodular lattices were introduced by G.…
The triangular lattice model with nearest-neighbor attraction and third-neighbor repulsion, introduced in [J. Pekalski, A. Ciach and N. G. Almarza, arXiv:1401.0801 [cond-mat.soft]] is studied by Monte Carlo simulation. Introduction of…
The $\gamma$-Cambrian semilattices $\mathcal{C}_{\gamma}$ defined by Reading and Speyer are a family of meet-semilattices associated with a Coxeter group $W$ and a Coxeter element $\gamma\in W$, and they are lattices if and only if $W$ is…
We introduce a new class of partial actions of free groups on totally disconnected compact Hausdorff spaces, which we call convex subshifts. These serve as an abstract framework for the partial actions associated with finite separated…
Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…
The systematic study of planar semimodular lattices started in 2007 with a series of papers by G. Gr\"atzer and E. Knapp. These lattices have connections with group theory and geometry. A planar semimodular lattice $L$ is {\it slim} if…
Following G. Gr\"atzer and E. Knapp (2007), a slim semimodular lattice, SPS lattice for short, is a finite planar semimodular lattice having no $M_3$ as a sublattice. An SPS lattice is a slim rectangular lattice if it has exactly two doubly…
Let (L_i : i\in I) be a family of lattices in a nontrivial lattice variety V, and let \phi_i: L_i --> M, for i\in I, be isotone maps (not assumed to be lattice homomorphisms) to a common lattice M (not assumed to lie in V). We show that the…
A recent paper on the large-scale structure of the Universe presented evidence for a rectangular three-dimensional lattice of galaxy superclusters and voids, with lattice spacing ~120 Mpc and called for some ``hitherto unknown process'' to…
A recent result of G. Cz\'edli and E.\,T. Schmidt gives a construction of slim (planar) semimodular lattices from planar distributive lattices by adding elements, adding "forks". We give a construction that accomplishes the same by deleting…
A cocomparability graph is a graph whose complement admits a transitive orientation. An interval graph is the intersection graph of a family of intervals on the real line. In this paper we investigate the relationships between interval and…
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.
The operation of replacing every vertex of an $r$-regular lattice $H$ by a complete graph of order $r$ is called clique-inserting, and the resulting lattice is called the clique-inserted-lattice of $H$. For any given $r$-regular lattice,…
A rooted planar map is a connected graph embedded in the 2-sphere, with one edge marked and assigned an orientation. A term of the pure lambda calculus is said to be linear if every variable is used exactly once, normal if it contains no…
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…
Let $L$ be a lattice of finite length and let $d$ denote the minimum path length metric on the covering graph of $L$. For any $\xi=(x_1,\dots,x_k)\in L^k$, an element $y$ belonging to $L$ is called a median of $\xi$ if the sum…
