Distributive lattices with finite projective covers

Alan Day, Herbert S. Gaskill and Werner Poguntke

Vol. 81 (1979), No. 1, 45–59
Abstract

A projective cover in a category, 𝒦, of algebras is a morphism ϕ : P A where A,P ∈𝒦, P is projective in 𝒦 and no proper subalgebra of P has A as its direct image under ϕ. Projective covers of finite distributive lattices in the categories , of all lattices and fin of all finite lattices are determined (when they exist).
