| Sep 19, 2015 at 23:18 | comment | added | Todd Trimble | Related to Hugh Thomas's post below, if I am not mistaken, the intersection of the three subspaces $X, Y, Z$ found by Dedekind is already the zero vector space, and their join is the full 8-dimensional space, so the top and bottom nodes of the Hasse diagram above aren't actually represented in that linear representation. (Also, there is the semi-obvious fact that the rank function of the lattice corresponds to linear dimension; if you lop off the top and bottom, then the dimensions start at 0 and end at 8.) | |
