Mathematics Colloquium - Thomas Sinclair; Purdue University

Title: Metric lattices

Abstract: A lattice is a partially ordered set so that each pair of elements has a least upper bound and greatest lower bound. I'll describe a class of lattices which admit natural compatible metric structures and give an attempt at what it means to construct continuous limits of sequences of finite metric lattices.
