Linearizing two partial orders to maximize the number of adjacencies and minimize the number of breakpoints is APX-hard. This holds even if one of the two partial orders is already a linear order and the other is an interval order, or if…

In this article we use the theory of interval-posets recently introduced by Ch{\^a}tel and Pons in order to describe some interesting families of intervals in the Tamari lattices. These families are defined as interval-posets avoiding…

This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to a crucial computational error. In this paper we deal with the finite case. We prove that a finite bounded ordered set can be represented as the order of principal congruences of a finite…

We study the number of linear extensions of a partial order with a given proportion of comparable pairs of elements, and estimate the maximum and minimum possible numbers. We also consider a random interval partial order on $n$ elements,…

We introduce new objects, the interval-posets, that encode intervals of the Tamari lattice. We then find a combinatorial interpretation of the bilinear form that appears in the functional equation of Tamari intervals described by Chapoton.…

In this paper we give an algorithm to determine, for any given suborder closed class of series-parallel posets, a structure theorem for the class. We refer to these structure theorems as structural descriptions.

In order theory, a rank function measures the vertical "level" of a poset element. It is an integer-valued function on a poset which increments with the covering relation, and is only available on a graded poset. Defining a vertical measure…

A partially ordered set P is representable if there is a bounded distributive lattice such that its ordered set of prime ideals is order-isomorphic to P. We show that if the order components of a poset P are representable, then so is P.…

Partially ordered sets (posets) play a universal role as an abstract structure in many areas of mathematics. For finite posets, an explicit enumeration of distinct partial orders on a set of unlabelled elements is known only up to a…

In order theory, partially ordered sets are only equipped with one relation which decides the entire structure/Hasse diagram of the set. In this paper, we have presented how partially ordered sets can be studied under simultaneous partially…

The interval poset of a permutation catalogues the intervals that appear in its one-line notation, according to set inclusion. We study this poset, describing its structural, characterizing, and enumerative properties.

We show that the concept of topological order, introduced to describe ordered quantum systems which cannot be classified by broken symmetries, also applies to classical systems. Starting from a specific example, we show how to use pure…

A method of embedding partially ordered sets into linear spaces is presented. The problem of finding all orthocomplementations in a finite lattice is reduced to a linear programming problem.

For a many-to-many matching market, we study the lattice structure of the set of random stable matchings. We define a partial order on the random stable set and present two intuitive binary operations to compute the least upper bound and…

We prove that the order of an ordered group is an interval order if and only if it is a semiorder. Next, we prove that every semiorder is isomorphic to a collection $\mathcal J$ of intervals of some totally ordered abelian group, these…

We analyse various structural and order-theoretical aspects of abstract separation systems and partial lattices, as well as the relationship between the different submodularity conditions one can impose on them.

We study poset limits given by sequences of finite interval orders or, as a special case, finite semiorders. In the interval order case, we show that every such limit can be represented by a probability measure on the space of closed…

The lattice of partitions of a set and its d-divisible generalization have been much studied for their combinatorial, topological, and representation-theoretic properties. An ordered set partition is a set partition where the subsets are…

We investigate the representation of lattices as sublattices of the lattice of all convex subsets (intervals) of a linearly ordered set $(X,\le)$. We introduce the purely lattice-theoretic notion of a \textit{loc-lattice} and prove that…

We consider partially ordered sets of combinatorial structures under consecutive orders, meaning that two structures are related when one embeds in the other such that `consecutive' elements remain consecutive in the image. Given such a…
