Rank bounded Hibi subrings for planar distributive lattices

Sa？etak Let L be a distributive lattice and R[L] the associated Hibi ring. We show that if L is planar, then any bounded Hibi subring of R[L] has a quadratic Grobner basis. We characterize all planar distributive lattices L for which any proper rank bounded Hibi subring of R[L] has a linear resolution. Moreover, if R[L] is linearly related for a lattice L, we find all the rank bounded Hibi subrings of R[L] which are linearly related too
