Embedding finite lattices into finite biatomic lattices

الأصل · EN

For a class C of finite lattices, the question arises whether any lattice in C can be embedded into some atomistic, biatomic lattice in C. We provide answers to the question above for C being, respectively, --The class of all finite lattices; --The class of all finite lower bounded lattices (solved by the first author's earlier work). --The class of all finite join-semidistributive lattices (this problem was, until now, open). We solve the latter problem by finding a quasi-identity valid in all finite, atomistic, biatomic, join-semidistributive lattices but not in all finite join-semidistributive lattices.
