Odd and even Fibonacci lattices arising from a Garside monoid

We study two families of lattices whose number of elements are given by the numbers in even (respectively odd) positions in the Fibonacci sequence. The even Fibonacci lattice arises as the lattice of simple elements of a Garside monoid partially ordered by left-divisibility, and the odd Fibonacci lattice is an order ideal in the even one. We give a combinatorial proof of the lattice property, relying on a description of words for the Garside element in terms of Schröder trees, and on a recursive description of the even Fibonacci lattice. This yields an explicit formula to calculate meets and joins in the lattice. As a byproduct we also obtain that the number of words for the Garside element is given by a little Schröder number.
