   1. (group theory) A discrete subgroup of R which is isomorphic to Z (considered as an additive group) and which spans the real vector space R.
   2. (topology, Lie theory, generalizing noun sense 5.1) A discrete subgroup L of a given locally compact group G whose quotient space G/L has finite invariant measure.
