Titre / Title: The Meet Operation in the Lattice of Codes
Abstract : We study properties of the meet of two rational codes X and Y , defined as the base of the free monoid X * « Y *. We disprove R. König's conjecture stating that if X and Y are two rational maximal codes, then their meet is also maximal. We give a combinatorial characterization of codes for wich the conjecture is true. We also show that any rational (maximal or not) code is the meet of two rational maximal codes.
