An element $a$ of a complete lattice $L$ for which the condition $$ a \le \bigvee_{j \in J} x_j\,,\ \ x_j \in L\,, $$ implies $$ a \le x_{j_1} \vee \cdots \vee x_{j_k} $$ for some finite subset $\{j_1,\ldots,j_k\} \subset J$.
An algebraic lattice is one in which each element is the union (least upper bound) of a set of compact elements.
