The rank $n$ boolean lattice $B_{n}$ is the subset lattice of $\{1,2, \dots , n\}$. The lattice $B_{3}$ is the following: ![enter image description here][1] *Question*: What are the rank $3$ boolean intervals of the form $[H,G]$, with $G$ a simple group? *Remark*: For $\vert G \vert \leq 4000000$, we have found (by GAP): - $A_8$ (of order $20160$) with a subgroup of index $315$, - $PSU(3,5)$ (of order $126000$) with a subgroup of index $6000$, - $PSp(6,2)$ (of order $1451520$) with a subgroup of index $2835$, - $PSU(4,3)$ (of order $3265920$) with a subgroup of index $25515$. Can we have a classification in general? There is a large class of examples given by the [BN-pairs][3], as pointed out in Example 4.21 of [this paper][4]: Let $G$ be a finite group with a BN-pair, $H$ be the corresponding Borel subgroup and $(W, S)$ be the associated Coxeter system. Let $n :=|S|$ be the rank of the BN-pair. Then the interval $[H, G]$ is Boolean of rank $n$. Any finite simple group $G$ of Lie type (over a finite field of characteristic $p$) admits a BN-pair (except Tits group). If moreover, $G$ is a Chevalley group, then $n$ is the number of vertices in its Dynkin diagram. The above interval with $G = A_8 $ or $ PSp(6,2)$ comes from a BN-pair (where $G$ is the Chevalley group $A_3(2)$ or $C_3(2)$), whereas the one with $G = PSU(3,5) $ or $ PSU(4,3)$ does not.
