Lattices of varieties of plactic-like monoids (2310.08682v2)

Abstract: We study the equational theories and bases of meets and joins of several varieties of plactic-like monoids. Using those results, we construct sublattices of the lattice of varieties of monoids, generated by said varieties. We calculate the axiomatic ranks of their elements, obtain plactic-like congruences whose corresponding factor monoids generate varieties in the lattice, and determine which varieties are joins of the variety of commutative monoids and a finitely generated variety. We also show that the hyposylvester and metasylvester monoids generate the same variety as the sylvester monoid.
