A finite lattice is geometric if it is semimodular and atomistic. Atomistic (or atomic in Stanley's terminology) means that every element is a join of some atoms; or equivalently, that every join-irreducible element is an atom.
a(n) is the number of simple matroids with n flats, up to isomorphism. - Harry Richman, Jul 27 2022
