Abstract

We show that the subgroup lattice of any finite group satisfies Frankl’s Union-Closed Conjecture. We show the same for all lattices with a modular coatom, a family which includes all supersolvable and dually semimodular lattices. A common technical result used to prove both may be of some independent interest. © 2017, Australian National University. All rights reserved.
