The conjecture that join–meet ideals of nonmodular lattices are not linearly related

Less than 1 year old · traced to

Let LL be a nonmodular lattice, and let ILI_L denote its join–meet ideal. An ideal is linearly related when its linear syzygies generate all of its syzygies. Nonmodular-lattice join–meet ideal conjecture. The ideal ILI_L is not linearly related.

The preceding example verifies this for each nonmodular lattice with at most six elements. The conjecture asks whether the same obstruction holds for every nonmodular lattice.
