Transformations of lattice diagrams and their associated dotted diagrams

We consider a graph called a lattice diagram, which is a graph in the $xy$-plane such that each edge is parallel to the $x$-axis or the $y$-axis. In [4], we investigated transformations of certain lattice diagrams, and we considered the reduced diagram that is obtained from deformations of a diagram associated with a lattice diagram. In this paper, we refine the notion of the reduced diagram by introducing the notion of a dotted diagram. A lattice diagram is presented by an admissible dotted diagram. We investigate deformations of dotted diagrams, and we investigate relation between deformations of admissible dotted diagrams and transformations of lattice diagrams, giving results that are refined and corrected versions of [4, Lemma 6.2, Theorem 6.3].
