Congruence-preserving Extensions of Finite Lattices to Sectionally Complemented Lattices

چکیده
In 1962, the authors proved that every finite distributive lattice can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite sectionally complemented lattice. In 1992, M. Tischendorf verified that every finite lattice has a congruence-preserving extension to an atomistic lattice. In this paper, we bring these two results together. We prove that every finite lattice has a congruence-preserving extension to a finite sectionally complemented lattice.

Finite lattices and congruences. A survey
In the early forties, R. P. Dilworth proved his famous result: Every finite distributive lattice D can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite lattice L. In one of our early papers, we presented the first published proof of this result; in fact we proved: Every finite distributive lattice D can be represented as the congruence lattice of a finite sectionally complemented lattice L....

متن کاملCongruence-preserving Extensions of Finite Lattices to Isoform Lattices
We call a lattice L isoform, if for any congruence relation Θ of L, all congruence classes of Θ are isomorphic sublattices. In an earlier paper, we proved that for every finite distributive lattice D, there exists a finite isoform lattice L such that the congruence lattice of L is isomorphic to D. In this paper, we prove a much stronger result: Every finite lattice has a congruence-preserving e...

The Independence Theorem for the congruence lattice and the auto-morphism group of a nite lattice was proved by V. A. Baranski and A. Urquhart. Both proofs utilize the characterization theorem of congruence lattices of nite lattices (as nite distributive lattices) and the characterization theorem of auto-morphism groups of nite lattices (as nite groups). In this paper, we introduce a new, stron...
متن کاملA Uniform Refinement Property for Congruence Lattices
The Congruence Lattice Problem asks whether every algebraic distributive lattice is isomorphic to the congruence lattice of a lattice. It was hoped that a positive solution would follow from E. T. Schmidt’s construction or from the approach of P. Pudlák, M. Tischendorf, and J. Tůma. In a previous paper, we constructed a distributive algebraic lattice A with א2 compact elements that cannot be ob...
