摘要
The Non-Cancelling Intersections (NCI) conjecture of Amarilli, Monet and Suciu [arXiv:2401.16210] states that the union of a finite family of sets can always be built from its algebraically non-cancelling intersections using only disjoint unions and subset complements. In Wilhelm [arXiv:2608.19414] the conjecture was shown to fail when the witnessing dot-algebra expression is required to be left-linear. Here we remove that restriction and show that the conjecture is false in general: there is a finite lattice admitting no dot-algebra representation of its top element whatsoever. The counterexample is a lattice $P_{p,\mathfrak{m}}$ as in Wilhelm [arXiv:2608.19414], and the argument differs in only two ways. First, we replace the sequential "toggle game" of Wilhelm [arXiv:2608.19414] by a corresponding tree-shaped object, the plane tree, which stands to dot-algebra trees as the toggle game stands to left-linear ones. Second, we use a marked plane in which there is no admissible set of any size between $2p$ and $4p$, which also removes the need for the Erdős--Beck theorem and for the arithmetic Nullstellensatz. Consequently $p$ need not be astronomically large: every prime $p \ge 10^{5}$ works.
