Summary
We consider certain conditions for abstract lattices of commuting squares, that we prove are necessary and sufficient for them to arise as lattices of higher relative commutants of a subfactor. We call such lattices standard and use this axiomatization to prove that their sublattices are standard too. We consider a method for producing sublatties and deduce from this and [Po5]| some criteria for bipartite graphs to be graphs of subfactors.
