Abstract

We introduce a family of posets which generate Lie poset subalgebras of An1=sl(n)A_{n-1}=\mathfrak{sl}(n) whose index can be realized topologically. In particular, if P\mathcal{P} is such a \textit{toral poset}, then it has a simplicial realization which is homotopic to a wedge sum of dd one-spheres, where dd is the index of the corresponding type-A Lie poset algebra gA(P)\mathfrak{g}_A(\mathcal{P}). Moreover, when gA(P)\mathfrak{g}_A(\mathcal{P}) is Frobenius, its spectrum is \textit{binary}; that is, consists of an equal number of 0's and 1's. We also find that all Frobenius, type-A Lie poset algebras corresponding to a poset whose largest totally ordered subset is of cardinality at most three have a binary spectrum.
