Lattice may refer to:

In art and design:
  • Latticework
    Latticework
    Latticework is a framework consisting of a criss-crossed pattern of strips of building material, typically wood or metal. The design is created by crossing the strips to form a network...

     an ornamental criss-crossed framework, an arrangement of crossing laths or other thin strips of material
  • Lattice (pastry)
    Lattice (pastry)
    The criss-crossing pattern of strips in this pastry is reminiscent of latticework.The idea of latticed pastry is used as a lid to many different tarts or pies....



In engineering:
  • A lattice shape truss
    Truss
    In architecture and structural engineering, a truss is a structure comprising one or more triangular units constructed with straight members whose ends are connected at joints referred to as nodes. External forces and reactions to those forces are considered to act only at the nodes and result in...

     structure


In mathematics:
  • Lattice (order)
    Lattice (order)
    In mathematics, a lattice is a partially ordered set in which any two elements have a unique supremum and an infimum . Lattices can also be characterized as algebraic structures satisfying certain axiomatic identities...

    , a partially ordered set with unique least upper bounds and greatest lower bounds
  • Lattice (group)
    Lattice (group)
    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...

    , a repeating arrangement of points
  • Lattice (discrete subgroup)
    Lattice (discrete subgroup)
    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...

    , a discrete subgroup of a topological group with finite covolume
  • Lattice graph
    Lattice graph
    The terms lattice graph, mesh graph, or grid graph refer to a number of categories of graphs whose drawing corresponds to some grid/mesh/lattice, i.e., its vertices correspond to the nodes of the mesh and its edges correspond to the ties between the nodes.-Square grid graph:A common type of a...

    , a graph that can be drawn within a repeating arrangement of points
  • Bethe lattice
    Bethe lattice
    A Bethe lattice or Cayley tree , introduced by Hans Bethe in 1935, is a connected cycle-free graph where each node is connected to z neighbours, where z is called the coordination number. It can be seen as a tree-like structure emanating from a central node, with all the nodes arranged in shells...

    , a regular infinite tree structure
  • Lattice multiplication, a multiplication algorithm suitable for hand calculation


In science:
  • A crystal structure
    Crystal structure
    In mineralogy and crystallography, crystal structure is a unique arrangement of atoms or molecules in a crystalline liquid or solid. A crystal structure is composed of a pattern, a set of atoms arranged in a particular way, and a lattice exhibiting long-range order and symmetry...

     fitting a lattice arrangement
  • Lattice model (physics)
    Lattice model (physics)
    In physics, a lattice model is a physical model that is defined on a lattice, as opposed to the continuum of space or spacetime. Lattice models originally occurred in the context of condensed matter physics, where the atoms of a crystal automatically form a lattice. Currently, lattice models are...

    , a model defined not on a continuum, but on a lattice
  • Lattice model (finance)
    Lattice model (finance)
    In finance, a lattice model can be used to find the fair value of a stock option; variants also exist for interest rate derivatives.The model divides time between now and the option's expiration into N discrete periods...

    , a method for evaluating stock options that divides time into discrete intervals
