In (1, §§ 2.3 and 2.4) we proved that certain distributive lattices are simultaneously lattice-embeddable in the degrees of recursive unsolvability and in the hyperdegrees. Let ℒ be the non-distributive lattice {0,1, a0, a1,…}, where aiaj = 1 and aiaj = 1 whenever ij. We shall prove the following theorem.

THEOREM. The lattice ℒ is simultaneously lattice-embeddable in the degrees and hyperdegrees.

For AN, let deg(A) and hyp(A) be the degree and hyperdegree of A, respectively. To prove the theorem we must construct hyperarithmetically incomparable sets A0, A1, … such that for Δ = deg, hypand for all distinct i, j:

1

2

Now, if each 〈Ai, Aj〉 were a generic pair in the sense of (1), then (2) would hold.
