In this paper, we introduce and investigate the latticial counterparts of the conditions (Ci), i = 1, 2, 3, 11, 12, for modules. In particular, we study the lattices satisfying the condition (C1), we call CC lattices (for Closed are Complements), i.e. the lattices such that any closed element is a complement, that are the latticial counterparts of CS modules (for Closed are Summands). Applications of these results are given to Grothendieck categories and module categories equipped with a torsion theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For an ordinal α, a modular lattice L with 0 and 1 is α-atomic if L has dual Krull dimension α but each interval [0,x] with x < 1 has dual Krull dimension <α. The properties of α-atomic lattices are presented and applied to module theory. The endomorphism ring of certain types of α-atomic modules is a local domain and hence there is a Krull–Schmidt type theorem for those α-atomic modules. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
