We consider the problem of covering $\mathbb{Z}^2$ with a finite number of sublattices of finite index, satisfying a simple minimality or non-degeneracy condition. We show how this problem may be viewed as a projective (or homogeneous)…

Properties of several sorts of lattices of convex subsets of R^n are examined. The lattice of convex sets containing the origin turns out, for n>1, to satisfy a set of identities strictly between those of the lattice of all convex subsets…

We investigate whether the set of subfit elements of a distributive semilattice is an ideal. This question was raised by the second author at the BLAST conference in 2022. We show that in general it has a negative solution, however if the…

We study uO convergence on infinitely distributive lattices, extending key properties known from Riesz spaces. We show that order continuity of uO convergence characterizes infinite distributivity. We examine O-adherence and uO adherence of…

A general result by Jackson (Flat algebras and the translation of universal Horn logic to equational logic, J. Symb. Log. 73(1) (2008) 90--128) implies that the lattice of all quasivarieties of groups of exponent dividing $n$ embeds into…

Many lattice-based crypstosystems employ ideal lattices for high efficiency. However, the additional algebraic structure of ideal lattices usually makes us worry about the security, and it is widely believed that the algebraic structure…

For a modular lattice $L$ of finite length, we prove that the distributivity of $L$ is a sufficient condition while its 2-distributivity is a necessary condition that those sublattices of $L$ that are closed under taking relative…

We investigate categorical and amalgamation properties of the functor Idc assigning to every partially ordered abelian group G its semilattice of compact ideals Idc G. Our main result is the following. Theorem 1. Every diagram of finite…

Let S be a distributive {∨, 0}-semilattice. In a previous paper, the second author proved the following result: Suppose that S is a lattice. Let K be a lattice, let $\phi$: Con K $\to$ S be a {∨, 0}-homomorphism. Then $\phi$ is,…

Implicational bases are a well-known representation of closure spaces and their closure lattices. This representation is not unique, though, and a closure space usually admits multiple bases. Among these, the canonical base, the canonical…

We attach to each $\langle 0, \vee \rangle$-semilattice a graph $\boldsymbol{G}_{\boldsymbol{S}}$ whose vertices are join-irreducible elements of $\boldsymbol{S}$ and whose edges correspond to the reflexive dependency relation. We study…

We affirm a conjecture of Sacks [1972] by showing that every countable distributive lattice is isomorphic to an initial segment of the hyperdegrees, $\mathcal{D}_{h}$. In fact, we prove that every sublattice of any hyperarithmetic lattice…

Meet-distributive lattices form an intriguing class of lattices, because they are precisely the lattices obtainable from a closure operator with the so-called anti-exchange property. Moreover, meet-distributive lattices are join…

We prove a number of results concerning the embedding of a Banach lattice $X$ into an r.i. space $Y$. For example we show that if $Y$ is an r.i. space on $[0,\infty)$ which is $p$-convex for some $p>2$ and has nontrivial concavity then any…

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 $K(L)$,…

Let $L$ be a planar semimodular lattice. We call $L$ \emph{slim}, if it has no $\mthree$ sublattice. Let us define an \emph{SPS lattice} as a slim, planar, semimodular lattice $L$. In 2016, I proved a property of congruences of SPS lattices…

Let $Q$ be a subset of a finite distributive lattice $D$. An algebra $A$ represents the inclusion $Q\subseteq D$ by principal congruences if the congruence lattice of $A$ is isomorphic to $D$ and the ordered set of principal congruences of…

The problem of determining which infinite lattices are (isomorphic to) sublattices of free lattices is in general unsolved and extremely difficult. In this note, we reduce the problem by proving that all locally finite sublattices of free…

In the second edition of the congruence lattice book, Problem 22.1 asks for a characterization of subsets $Q$ of a finite distributive lattice $D$ such that there is a finite lattice $L$ whose congruence lattice is isomorphic to $D$ and…

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…
