For a finite non-empty set $X$, let $\mathfrak{P}(X)$ denote the set of all posets with carrier $X$, ordered by inclusion of their partial order relations. We investigate properties of posets $P \in \mathfrak{P}(X)$ for which no lower cover…
The closed cone of flag vectors of Eulerian partially ordered sets is studied. It is completely determined up through rank seven. Half-Eulerian posets are defined. Certain limit posets of Billera and Hetyei are half-Eulerian; they give rise…
In this paper we study finite Eulerian posets which are binomial, Sheffer or triangular. These important classes of posets are related to the theory of generating functions and to geometry. The results of this paper are organized as…
We explore the operad of finite posets and its algebras. We use order polytopes to investigate the combinatorial properties of zeta values. By generalizing a family of zeta value identities, we demonstrate the applicability of this…
Given a finite poset $\mathcal P$, we call a family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of $[n]$ $\mathcal P$-saturated if $\mathcal F$ does not contain an induced copy of $\mathcal P$, but adding any other set to $\mathcal F$ creates an induced copy…
We address a supersaturation problem in the context of forbidden subposets. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets is said to contain the poset $P$ if there is an injection $i:P \rightarrow \mathcal{F}$ such that $p \le_P q$ implies $i(p) \subset i…
We construct an ungraded CL-shellable poset and a graded CL-shellable poset and show that neither is EL-shellable.
Given a finite poset $P$, we consider the largest size $\lanp$ of a family $\F$ of subsets of $[n]:=\{1,...,n\}$ that contains no subposet $P$. This continues the study of the asymptotic growth of $\lanp$; it has been conjectured that for…
An $N$-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 $N$-free posets and some labelled ordered trees to show that a…
We generalize the definition of the $cd$-index of an Eulerian poset to the class of semi-Eulerian posets. For simplicial semi-Eulerian Buchsbaum posets, we show that all coefficients of the $cd$-index are non-negative. This proves a…
We show that there are $n!$ matchings on $2n$ points without, so called, left (neighbor) nestings. We also define a set of naturally labeled $(2+2)$-free posets, and show that there are $n!$ such posets on $n$ elements. Our work was…
The P-Eulerian polynomial counts the linear extensions of a labeled partially ordered set, P, by their number of descents. It is known that the P-Eulerian polynomials are real-rooted for various classes of posets P. The purpose of this…
We prove that the partial order on the set of matchings of 2n points on a circle, given by resolving crossings, is an Eulerian poset.
The notion of level posets is introduced. This class of infinite posets has the property that between every two adjacent ranks the same bipartite graph occurs. When the adjacency matrix is indecomposable, we determine the length of the…
We discuss properties of root posets for finite crystallographic root systems, and show that these properties uniquely determine root posets for the noncrystallographic dihedral types and type $H_3$, while proving that there does not exist…
We complete the classification of smooth surfaces swept out by a 1-dimensional family of plane curves that do not form a fibration. As a consequence, we characterize manifolds swept out by a 1-dimensional family of hypersurfaces that do not…
Most of the examples of wavelet sets are for dilation sets which are groups. We find a necessary and sufficient condition under which subspace wavelet sets exist for dilation sets of the form $A B$, which are not necessarily groups. We…
We present a classical $r$-matrix for the Hitchin system without marked points on an arbitrary non-degenerate algebraic curve of genus $g\ge 2$ using Tyurin parameterization of holomorphic vector bundles.
In the theory of partially-ordered sets, the two-dimensional Boolean lattice is known as the diamond. In this paper, we show that, if $\mathcal{F}$ is a family in the $n$-dimensional Boolean lattice that has no diamond as a subposet, then…
We introduce the jet schemes of a holomorphic foliation, and thereby prove an alternate characterisation of simple singularities of codimension-$1$ foliations, independent of any normal form. This leads to an equivalent condition for the…
