Theorem
Let $L_1 = \struct {A_1, \vee_1, \wedge_1, \preceq_1}$ and $L_2 = \struct {A_2, \vee_2, \wedge_2, \preceq_2}$ be lattices.
The following definitions of the concept of Lattice Isomorphism are equivalent:
Definition 1
Let $\phi: L_1 \to L_2$ be a (lattice) homomorphism.
We say $\phi: L_1 \to L_2$ is a lattice isomorphism if and only if $\phi : A_1 \to A_2$ is a bijection.
Definition 2
Let $\phi: A_1 \to A_2$ be a mapping.
We say $\phi : L_1 \to L_2$ is a lattice isomorphism if and only if $\phi : L_1 \to L_2$ is an order isomorphism.
Proof
Definition 1 implies Definition 2
Let $\phi : L_1 \to L_2$ be a bijective lattice homomorphism.
From Inverse of Bijective Lattice Homomorphism is Bijective Lattice Homomorphism:
- $\phi^{-1}: L_2 \to L_1$ is a bijective lattice homomorphism.
From Lattice Homomorphism is Order-Preserving:
- $\phi : \struct{A_1, \preceq_1} \to \struct{A_2, \preceq_2}$ and $\phi^{-1} : \struct{A_2, \preceq_2} \to \struct{A_1, \preceq_1}$ are order-preserving
Hence $\phi : \struct{A_1, \preceq_1} \to \struct{A_2, \preceq_2}$ is an order isomorphism by definition.
$\Box$
Definition 2 implies Definition 1
Let $\phi : \struct{A_1, \preceq_1} \to \struct{A_2, \preceq_2}$ be an order isomorphism.
By definition of order isomorphism:
- $\phi : \struct{A_1, \preceq_1} \to \struct{A_2, \preceq_2}$ is an order-preserving bijection
Let $\phi^{-1} : A_2 \to A_1$ be the inverse of $\phi : A_1 \to A_2$.
From Inverse of Order Isomorphism is Order Isomorphism:
- $\phi^{-1} : \struct{A_2, \preceq_2} \to \struct{A_1, \preceq_1}$ is an order isomorphism
$\phi$ Satisfies Join Morphism Property
Let:
- $x, y \in A_1$
We have:
\(\ds x, y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds x \vee_1 y\) | Definition of Supremum | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map \phi x, \map \phi y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map \phi {x \vee_1 y}\) | Definition of Order-Preserving Mapping | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map \phi {x \vee_1 y}\) | Definition of Supremum | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi {x \vee_1 y} }\) | Definition of Order-Preserving Mapping | ||||||||||
\(\text {(1)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds x \vee_1 y\) | Definition of Inverse Mapping |
Also we have:
\(\ds \map \phi x, \map \phi y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y\) | Definition of Supremum | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x}, \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi y}\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | Definition of Order-Preserving Mapping | ||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds x, y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | Definition of Inverse Mapping | ||||||||||
\(\text {(2)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds x \vee_1 y\) | \(\le\) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | Definition of Supremum |
Hence:
\(\ds x \vee_1 y\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y}\) | Ordering Axiom $(3)$: Antisymmetry applied to $(1)$ and $(2)$ | |||||||||||
\(\ds \leadsto \ \ \) | \(\ds \map \phi {x \vee_1 y}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map \phi {\map {\phi^{-1} } {\map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y} }\) | |||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y\) | Definition of Inverse Mapping |
It follows:
- $(3):\quad \forall x, y \in A_1 : \map \phi {x \vee_1 y} = \map \phi x \vee_2 \map \phi y$
That is, $\phi$ satisfies the join morphism property.
$\Box$
$\phi$ Satisfies Meet Morphism Property
The dual statement of $(3)$ is:
- $(4):\quad \forall x, y \in A_1 : \map \phi {x \wedge_1 y} = \map \phi x \wedge_2 \map \phi y$
We have $(4)$ holds from Duality Principle.
That is, $\phi$ satisfies the meet morphism property.
$\Box$
It follows that $\phi$ is a bijective lattice homomorphism by definition.
