Contexts and sublattices of concept lattices. (English) Zbl 0816.06006

Any context \(\mathcal J\) can be uniquely assigned a complete concept lattice \(L_{\mathcal J}\) [see, e.g., R. Wille, Ordered sets, Proc. NATO Adv. Study Inst., Banff/Can. 1981, 445-470 (1982; Zbl 0491.06008)]. In this paper we describe substructures in \(\mathcal J\) such that their concept lattices are all complete sublattices in \(L_{\mathcal J}\). As a consequence a characterization of contexts with distributive or modular concept lattices is obtained.
