An occurrence of a consecutive permutation pattern $p$ in a permutation $\pi$ is a segment of consecutive letters of $\pi$ whose values appear in the same order of size as the letters in $p$. The set of all permutations forms a poset with…

The set of all permutations, ordered by pattern containment, is a poset. We present an order isomorphism from the poset of permutations with a fixed number of descents to a certain poset of words with subword order. We use this bijection to…

We study several aspects of the M\"{o}bius function, $\mu[\sigma,\pi]$, on the poset of permutations under the pattern containment order. First, we consider cases where the lower bound of the poset is indecomposable. We show that…

We present a two term formula for the M\"obius function of intervals in the poset of all permutations, ordered by pattern containment. The first term in this formula is the number of so called normal occurrences of one permutation in…

We show that if a permutation $\pi$ contains two intervals of length 2, where one interval is an ascent and the other a descent, then the M\"{o}bius function $\mu[\pi]$ of the interval $[1,\pi]$ is zero. As a consequence, we show that the…

We show that the M\"obius function of an interval in a permutation poset where the lower bound is sum (resp. skew) indecomposable depends solely on the sum (resp. skew) indecomposable permutations contained in the upper bound, and that this…

We study the values of the M\"obius function $\mu$ of intervals in the containment poset of permutations. We construct a sequence of permutations $\pi_n$ of size $2n-2$ for which $\mu(1,\pi_n)$ is given by a polynomial in $n$ of degree 7.…

We give a recursive formula for the Moebius function of an interval $[\sigma,\pi]$ in the poset of permutations ordered by pattern containment in the case where $\pi$ is a decomposable permutation, that is, consists of two blocks where the…

We show that the proportion of permutations of length $n$ with principal M\"{o}bius function equal to zero, $Z(n)$, is asymptotically bounded below by 0.3995. If a permutation $\pi$ contains two intervals of length 2, where one interval is…

The interval poset of a permutation is the set of intervals of a permutation, ordered with respect to inclusion. It has been introduced and studied recently in [B. Tenner, arXiv:2007.06142]. We study this poset from the perspective of the…

We introduce the poset of mesh patterns, which generalises the permutation pattern poset. We fully classify the mesh patterns for which the interval [1^\emptyset,m] is non-pure, where 1^\emptyset is the unshaded singleton mesh pattern. We…

A permutation \tau contains another permutation \sigma as a pattern if \tau has a subsequence whose elements are in the same order with respect to size as the elements in \sigma. This defines a partial order on the set of all permutations,…

The consecutive pattern poset is the infinite partially ordered set of all permutations where $\sigma\le\tau$ if $\tau$ has a subsequence of adjacent entries in the same relative order as the entries of $\sigma$. We study the structure of…

The set of all permutations, ordered by pattern containment, forms a poset. This paper presents the first explicit major results on the topology of intervals in this poset. We show that almost all (open) intervals in this poset have a…

We determine the M\"obius function of the poset of compositions of an integer. In fact we give two proofs of this formula, one using an involution and one involving discrete Morse theory. The composition poset turns out to be intimately…

We introduce vincular pattern posets, then we consider in particular the quasi-consecutive pattern poset, which is defined by declaring $\sigma \leq \tau$ whenever the permutation $\tau$ contains an occurrence of the permutation $\sigma$ in…

This is an introduction to the M\"obius function of a poset. The chief novelty is in the exposition. We show how order-preserving maps from one poset to another can be used to relate their M\"obius functions. We derive the basic results on…

We show that the growth of the principal M\"obius function on the permutation poset is exponential. This improves on previous work, which has shown that the growth is at least polynomial. We define a method of constructing a permutation…

We study filters in the partition lattice formed by restricting to partitions by type. The M\"obius function is determined in terms of the easier-to-compute descent set statistics on permutations and the M\"obius function of filters in the…

We study the poset $\mathcal{G}$ of all unlabelled graphs, up to isomorphism, with $H\le G$ if $H$ occurs as an induced subgraph in $G$. We present some general results on the M\"obius function of intervals of $\mathcal{G}$ and some results…
