| Description | A modular semilattice is a semilattice in which implies that there exist such that and . This is equivalent to modularity in a lattice and in the semilattice of ideals of the semilattice, and the condition implies the Kurosh-Ore replacement property for irreducible elements in a semilattice. The main results provide extensions of the classical characterizations of modular and distributive lattices by their sublattices: A semilattice is modular if and only if each pair of elements of has an upper bound in and there is no retract of isomorphic to the nonmodular five lattice. A semilattice is distributive if and only if it is modular and has no retract isomorphic to the nondistributive five lattice. |
