Abstract
Over the last thirty years much progress has been made in the investigation of the lattice of uniformities on a set X. In particular, Pelant, Reiterman, Rodl and Simon have published several articles concerning anti-atoms and complements in this lattice. The aim of this dissertation is to begin a similar investigation into the lattice of quasi-uniformities θ(X) on a set X. It starts off with a summary of results obtained for the lattice of topologies on X, which, having been studied in great detail in the past, is intended as an example as to what may be achieved with θ(X). An exposit ion of the lattice of uniformities is then given. We conclude by commencing an investigation into the lattice of quasi-uniformities on X . Where possible, results obtained for the lattice of uniformities are generalized to θ(X), and some original results for θ(X) are also presented.
