At the very heart of mathematics lies an object both simple and profound and mysterious, which is also full of connections with other areas of the subject.
In this video I introduce a way of thinking about this central object (which I refer to as a "lattice" but more technically correct would be to call it a "meet semi-lattice") and give a loose informal description of some of its many links with various topics in pure mathematics.
