Every lattice is embeddable in the lattice of -topologies
We prove that a finite atomistic lattice can be represented as a lattice of quasivarieties if and only if it is isomorphic to the lattice of all subsemilattices of a finite semilattice. This settles a conjecture that appeared in the context of [11].
Whereas the Dedekind-MacNeille completion D(P) of a poset P is the minimal lattice L such that every element of L is a join of elements of P, the minimal strict completion D(P)∗ is the minimal lattice L such that the poset of join-irreducible elements of L is isomorphic to P. (These two completions are the same if every element of P is join-irreducible). In this paper we study lattices which are minimal strict completions of finite orders. Such lattices are in one-to-one correspondence with finite...
A concrete category is (algebraically) universal if any category of algebras has a full embedding into , and is almost universal if there is a class of -objects such that all non-constant homomorphisms between them form a universal category. The main result of this paper fully characterizes the finitely generated varieties of -lattices which are almost universal.
