We prove that every distributive algebraic lattice with at most $\aleph\_1$ compact elements is isomorphic to the normal subgroup lattice of some group and to the submodule lattice of some right module. The $\aleph\_1$ bound is optimal, as…

Let {\Gamma} be a directed graph and Inv({\Gamma}) be the graph inverse semigroup of {\Gamma}. Luo and Wang [7] showed that the congruence lattice C(Inv({\Gamma})) of any graph inverse semigroup Inv({\Gamma}) is upper semimodular, but not…

We show that the congruence lattice of a semilattice satsifies a form of distributivity relative to principal congruences of the form $ \Theta_{t \odot s, s}$. Particularly, we establish that semilattice congruences obey the ``pairwise…

In the current paper we study extremal semilattices with respect to their equational properties. In the class $\mathbf{S}_n$ of all semilattices of order $n$ we find semilattices which have maximal (minimal) number of consistent equations.…

Distributive skew lattices satisfying $x\wedge (y\vee z)\wedge x = (x\wedge y\wedge x) \vee (x\wedge z\wedge x)$ and its dual are studied, along with the larger class of linearly distributive skew lattices, whose totally preordered…

Let $L$ denote a finite lattice with at least two points and let $A$ denote the incidence algebra of $L$. We prove that $L$ is distributive if and only if $A$ is an Auslander regular ring, which gives a homological characterisation of…

For many equation-theoretical questions about modular lattices, Hall and Dilworth give a useful construction: Let $L_0$ be a lattice with largest element $u_0$, $L_1$ be a lattice disjoint from $L_0$ with smallest element $v_1$, and $a \in…

This paper investigates the interplay between algebraic structure, topology, and differentiability in Clifford semigroups. The study is developed along three main themes. First, in the compact Hausdorff setting, we provide an explicit…

We provide a direct proof that a finite graded lattice with a maximal chain of left modular elements is supersolvable. This result was first established via a detour through EL-labellings in [McNamara-Thomas] by combining results of…

We study maximal sublattices of finite semidistributive lattices via their complements. We focus on the conjecture that such complements are always intervals, which is known to be true for bounded lattices. Since the class of…

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,…

We characterize supersolvable lattices in terms of a certain modular type relation. McNamara and Thomas earlier characterized this class of lattices as those graded lattices having a maximal chain that consists of left-modular elements. Our…

Join-distributive lattices are finite, meet-semidistributive, and semimodular lattices. They are the same as Dilworth's lattices in 1940, and many alternative definitions and equivalent concepts have been discovered or rediscovered since…

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…

It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…
