The order-scattered ideal-lattice conjecture for join-semilattices

About 11 years old · traced to

Let PP be a join-semilattice, and let Id⁡P\operatorname{Id} P denote its lattice of ideals. An ordered set is order-scattered if it does not contain a copy of the order of the rationals. Write \powerset<ω(N)\powerset^{<\omega}(\mathbb N) for the finite subsets of the natural numbers, ordered by inclusion, and let Ω(η)\Omega(\eta) be the ordered structure used in the stated embeddability condition. Order-scattered ideal-lattice conjecture. Id⁡P\operatorname{Id} P is order-scattered if and only if PP is order-scattered, and neither \powerset<ω(N)\powerset^{<\omega}(\mathbb N) nor Ω(η)\Omega(\eta) is embeddable into PP as a join-semilattice. This conjecture was stated in the cited work and has been proved, so the characterization is now a theorem.
