The notions of gluing, tolerance relations, and Mal'cev products of varieties have been used by various authors to investigate varieties of lattices. In this paper the authors introduce a general framework for all these concepts and apply it to varieties of modular and Arguesian lattices.

Left-modularity is a concept that generalizes the notion of modularity in lattice theory. In this paper, we give a characterization of left-modular elements and derive two formulae for the characteristic polynomial, /, of a lattice with such an element, one of which generalizes Stanley's theorem [6]
In this note we consider integral lattices 4 in euclidean space (R n , ,), i.e. 4 R n is the Z-span of an R-basis of R n with ,(4, 4) Z. The minimum of 4 is min[,(4, 4) | 0{\* # 4]. It is interesting to find lattices of given determinant or of given genus with large minimum. We prove the following
