Abstract

Slim rectangular lattices were introduced by G. Grätzer and E. Knapp in Acta Sci. Math. 75, 29–48, 2009. They are finite semimodular lattices L such that the poset Ji L of join-irreducible elements of L is the cardinal sum of two nontrivial chains. Using deep tools and involved considerations, a 2013 paper by G. Czédli and the present authors proved that a slim semimodular lattice is rectangular iff so is the Jordan–Hölder permutation associated with it. Here, we give an easier and more elementary proof.
