Luo and Wang [7] showed that the congruence lattice C(Inv({\\Gamma})) of any graph inverse semigroup Inv({\\Gamma}) is upper semimodular, but not lower semimodular in general. Anagnostopoulou-Merkouri, Mesyan and Mitchell characterized the directed graph {\\Gamma} for which C(Inv({\\Gamma})) is lower semimodular [2]. In the present paper, we show that the lower semimodularity, modularity and distributivity in the congruence lattice C(Inv({\\Gamma})) of any graph inverse semigroup Inv({\\Gamma}) are equivalent.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-03-28T08:02:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20M18", "05C20", "06D99" ], "keywords": [ "graph inverse semigroup", "congruence lattice", "distributivity", "directed graph", "upper semimodular" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
