In the last few years my interest turned to  higher dimensional (not planar) semimodular lattices.

(This research is inspired by some papers of George Grätzer and E. Knapp on planar semimodular lattices,

published in the Acta Sci. Math. Szeged around 2007)  pdf

The new results can be considered as a geometric approach. I published another 7 papers with Gábor Czédli, the first of these is

G. Czédli and E. T. Schmidt, How can we derive semilmoduar lattices from distributive lattices?

Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hungar. 121(2008), 277-282 ( pdf )

 is for arbitrary  semimodular lattices the another joint papers consider planar lattices.

The main structure theorem of 2D semimodular lattices is in the following paper:

 

G. Czédli and E. T. Schmidt, Slim semimodular lattices. II.

A description by patchwork systems, Order, 30 (2013), 689-721. ( pdf)

My conjecture: every semimodular lattice is the patchwork of patch lattices.
