Abstract
Two complete lattices, M and N, lying in an algebra over the field of rational numbers, are said to be weakly left equivalent if N=KM and M=¯KN, where K is a two-sided invertible lattice and ¯K is the inverse for K. In this paper we prove that the number of equivalence classes of lattices contained in a weak equivalence class is finite.
