Abstract: | We introduce a new generalization of Alan Day’s doubling construction. For ordered sets \(\mathcal {L}\) and \(\mathcal {K}\) and a subset \(E \subseteq \ \leq _{\mathcal {L}}\) we define the ordered set \(\mathcal {L} \star _{E} \mathcal {K}\) arising from inflation of \(\mathcal {L}\) along E by \(\mathcal {K}\). Under the restriction that \(\mathcal {L}\) and \(\mathcal {K}\) are finite lattices, we find those subsets \(E \subseteq \ \leq _{\mathcal {L}}\) such that the ordered set \(\mathcal {L} \star _{E} \mathcal {K}\) is a lattice. Finite lattices that can be constructed in this way are classified in terms of their congruence lattices.A finite lattice is binary cut-through codable if and only if there exists a 0?1 spanning chain \(\left \{\theta _{i}\colon 0 \leq i \leq n \right \}\) in \(Con(\mathcal {L})\) such that the cardinality of the largest block of ?? i /?? i?1 is 2 for every i with 1≤i≤n. These are exactly the lattices that can be constructed by inflation from the 1-element lattice using only the 2-element lattice. We investigate the structure of binary cut-through codable lattices and describe an infinite class of lattices that generate binary cut-through codable varieties. |
