چکیده

We prove that every finite distributive lattice D can be represented as the congruence lattice of a rectangular lattice K in which all congruences are principal. We verify this result in a stronger form as an extension theorem.

Frankl's Conjecture for a subclass of semimodular lattices

In this paper, we prove Frankl's Conjecture for an upper semimodular lattice $L$ such that $|J(L)setminus A(L)| leq 3$, where $J(L)$ and $A(L)$ are the set of join-irreducible elements and the set of atoms respectively. It is known that the class of planar lattices is contained in the class of dismantlable lattices and the class of dismantlable lattices is contained in the class of lattices ha...

Slim Semimodular Lattices. II. A Description by Patchwork Systems

Rectangular lattices are special planar semimodular lattices introduced by G. Grätzer and E. Knapp in 2009. By a patch lattice we mean a rectangular lattice whose weak corners are coatoms. As a sort of gluings, we introduce the concept of a patchwork system. We prove that every glued sum indecomposable planar semimodular lattice is a patchwork of its maximal patch lattice intervals “sewn togeth...

Slim Semimodular Lattices. I. A Visual Approach

A finite lattice L is called slim if no three join-irreducible elements of L form an antichain. Slim lattices are planar. Slim semimodular lattices play the main role in [3], where lattice theory is applied to a purely group theoretical problem. After exploring some easy properties of slim lattices and slim semimodular lattices, we give two visual structure theorems for slim semimodular lattices.

Notes on Planar Semimodular Lattices. VII. Resections of Planar Semimodular Lattices

A recent result of G. Czédli 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 elements, by “resections”.
