There are three lattice-theoretic properties that are generally used to open a discussion on sublattices of a free lattice:

(W) for all a, b, c, d, a Λ bc V d implies a A b ≦ c, a Λ b g rf, acVd,orbc V d;

(SDv) for all a, b, c, a V b = a V c implies a V b = a V (b Λ c ) ;

(SDΛ) for all a, b, c, a Λ b = a Λ c implies a Λ b = a Λ (b V c).
