چکیده

Whaley’s Theorem on the existence of large proper sublattices of infinite lattices is extended to ordered sets and finite lattices. As a corollary it is shown that every finite lattice L with |L| ≥ 3 contains a proper sublattice S with |S| ≥ |L| 3 . It is also shown that that every finite modular lattice L with |L| ≥ 3 contains a proper sublattice S with |S| ≥ |L| 2 , and every finite distributive lattice L with |L| ≥ 4 contains a proper sublattice S with |S| ≥ 3 4 |L|.

FUZZY ORDERED SETS AND DUALITY FOR FINITE FUZZY DISTRIBUTIVE LATTICES

The starting point of this paper is given by Priestley’s papers, where a theory of representation of distributive lattices is presented. The purpose of this paper is to develop a representation theory of fuzzy distributive lattices in the finite case. In this way, some results of Priestley’s papers are extended. In the main theorem, we show that the category of finite fuzzy Priestley space...

RADICAL OF FILTERS IN RESIDUATED LATTICES

‎In this paper‎, ‎the notion of the radical of a filter in‎ ‎residuated lattices is defined and several characterizations of‎ ‎the radical of a filter are given‎. ‎We show that if F is a‎ ‎positive implicative filter (or obstinate filter)‎, ‎then‎ ‎Rad(F)=F‎. ‎We proved the extension theorem for radical of filters in residuated lattices‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we study the radical‎ ‎of filters in linearly o...

Distributive lattices with strong endomorphism kernel property as direct sums

Unbounded distributive lattices which have strong endomorphism kernel property (SEKP) introduced by Blyth and Silva in [3] were fully characterized in [11] using Priestley duality (see Theorem  2.8}). We shall determine the structure of special elements (which are introduced after  Theorem 2.8 under the name strong elements) and show that these lattices can be considered as a direct product of ...

Margulis’s normal subgroup theorem A short introduction

The normal subgroup theorem of Margulis expresses that many lattices in semi-simple Lie groups are simple up to finite error. In this talk, we give a short introduction to the normal subgroup theorem , including a brief review of the relevant notions about lattices, amenability, and property (T), as well as a short overview of the proof of the normal subgroup theorem. 1 Margulis's normal subgro...

Some results on $L$-complete lattices

The paper deals with special types of $L$-ordered sets, $L$-fuzzy complete lattices, and fuzzy directed complete posets.First, a theorem for constructing monotone maps is proved, a characterization for monotone maps on an $L$-fuzzy complete lattice is obtained, and it's proved that if $f$ is a monotone map on an $L$-fuzzy complete lattice $(P;e)$, then the least fixpoint of $f$ is meet of a spe...
