Bounded lattice

In mathematics, and in particular in order theory, a bounded lattice is a lattice that has a least element and a greatest element, usually denoted by and , respectively.

Bounded lattices are of considerable importance because many algebraic structures are bounded lattices, including complete lattices, Heyting algebras, Boolean algebras, and others.
