lattices, plural;
  1. A structure consisting of strips of wood or metal crossed and fastened together with square or diamond-shaped spaces left between, used typically as a screen or fence or as a support for climbing plants

  2. An interlaced structure or pattern resembling this
    • - the lattice of branches above her
  3. A regular repeated three-dimensional arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in a metal or other crystalline solid


  1. an arrangement of points or particles or objects in a regular periodic pattern in 2 or 3 dimensions
  2. wicket: small opening (like a window in a door) through which business can be transacted
  3. framework consisting of an ornamental design made of strips of wood or metal
  4. (latticed) fretted: having a pattern of fretwork or latticework
  5. In Lie theory and related areas of mathematics, a lattice in a locally compact topological group is a discrete subgroup with the property that the quotient space has finite invariant measure. ...
  6. In mathematics, especially in geometry and group theory, a lattice in Rn is a discrete subgroup of Rn which spans the real vector space Rn. Every lattice in Rn can be generated from a basis for the vector space by forming all linear combinations with integer coefficients. ...
  7. In mathematics, the term lattice can mean: * A partially ordered set (poset) in which any two elements have a supremum and an infimum--see lattice (order). The Hasse diagrams of these posets look (in some simple cases) like the lattices of ordinary language. ...
  8. In mathematics, a lattice is a partially ordered set (also called a poset) in which any two elements have a unique supremum (the elements' least upper bound; called their join) and an infimum (greatest lower bound; called their meet). ...
  9. The criss-crossing pattern of strips in this pastry is reminiscent of the laths in a garden trellis, as well as a Hasse diagram of a lattice in mathematics.
  10. A lath is a thin, narrow strip of some straight-grained wood or other material, including metal or gypsum. A lattice, or lattice-work, is a criss-crossed or interlaced arrangement of laths, or the pattern made by such an arrangement. ...
  11. A flat panel constructed with widely-spaced crossed thin strips of wood or other material, commonly used as a garden trellis; a regular spacing or arrangement of geometric points, often decorated with a motif; A partially ordered set in which every pair of elements has a unique supremum and an ...
  12. A framework of crossed wood or metal strips.
  13. The regular periodic arrangement of atoms or molecules in a crystal of semiconductor material.
  14. A word lattice is a weighted acyclic graph where word labels are either assigned to the graphs edges (or links) or to the graph vertices (or nodes). Acoustic and language model weights are associated to each edge, and a time position is associated to each vertex
  15. Wood or other material formed into an open cross-hatch design.
  16. Space lattice. Lattice lines and lattice planes are lines and planes chosen so as to pass through collinear lattice points, and non-collinear lattice points, respectively.
  17. An openwork crisscross or fretwork made of thin, flat strips of wood or metal. Usually found in chairs and headboards.
  18. An open framework made of various sized beams overlaid in a regular pattern supported by columns usually as a decorative shade cover or structure.
  19. strips of fabric that are set between blocks and separate the blocks in a quilt.
  20. Laths or lines crossing to form a network.
  21. Very fine crisscross sculpture pattern on mollusc shells.
  22. A lattice can be viewed as a grid in an n-dimensional vector space. See Section A.5.
  23. An orderly arrangement of atoms in a material, usually thought of as an infinite series of "cells" forming a "latticework" of atoms in 3-dimensions. A thorough treatment of lattices and other materials issues can be found at the Visualizations in Materials Science WWW site.
  24. in MRI, the magnetic and thermal environment through which nuclei exchange energy in longitudinal (T1) relaxation.
  25. a regularly space array of points that represents the structure of a crystal. Crystals are composed of groups of atoms repeated at regular interval in three dimensions with the same orientation. ...
