A Proof of the Alternate Thomass\'e Conjecture for Countable $NE$-Free Posets

Combinatorics 2023-01-09 v2

Abstract

An NN-free poset is a poset whose comparability graph does not embed an induced path with four vertices. We use the well-quasi-order property of the class of countable NN-free posets and some labelled ordered trees to show that a countable NN-free poset has one or infinitely many siblings, up to isomorphism. This, partially proves a conjecture stated by Thomass\'e for this class.
