Abstract

Planar posets can have arbitrarily large dimension. However, a planar poset of height hh has dimension at most 192h+96192h+96, while a planar poset with tt minimal elements has dimension at most 2t+12t+1. In particular, a planar poset with a unique minimal element has dimension at most 33. In this paper, we extend this result by showing that a planar poset has dimension at most 66 if it has a plane diagram in which every minimal element is accessible from below.
