Abstract · v1

Adams, Freese, Nation and Schmid proved that the complement of a maximal sublattice of a finite bounded lattice is an interval, and asked whether the same holds for finite semidistributive lattices; Adaricheva, Mata, Silberger and Zamojska-Dzienio conjectured that it does. It does not. In a 26-element semidistributive sublattice of the square of a 14-element semidistributive lattice, the diagonal is a maximal sublattice whose complement has two minimal elements.
