Abstract
The meet-core of a finite lattice L is its minimal -- in fact minimum -- partial meet- subsemilattice of which the filter lattice is isomorphic to L. This gives a representation theory for finite lattices, in particular which extends Birkhoff's correspondence between ordered sets and distributive lattices, and is linked with Wille's notion of scaffolding. The meet-cores (and dually the join-cores) of modular, geometric and join-meet-distributive lattices are characterized locally by some obligatory sublattices or by some construction procedures otherwise.
