Abstract
AbstractA projective geometry of dimension (n - 1) can be defined as modular lattice with a spanning n-diamond of atoms (i.e.: n + 1 atoms in general position whose join is the unit of the lattice). The lemma we show is that one could equivalently define a projective geometry as a modular lattice with a spanning n-diamond that is (a) is generated (qua lattice) by this n-diamond and a coordinating diagonal and (b) every non-zero member of this coordinatizing diagonal is invertible. The lemma is applied to describe certain freely generated modular and Arguesian lattices.
