Abstract

Lower (or: dually) semimodular lattices behave in certain situations like consistent upper semimodular lattices. A common property of both classes of lattices is that they are hereditarily strong in the sense that every interval is a strong sublattice (cf. Section 2). We relate the properties “hereditarily strong” and “consistent” as well as their duals to lower semimodularity and to modularity (Section 3). Finally we characterize modularity for consistent lower semimodular lattices by means of forbidden sublattices (Section 4).
