We construct an explicit Hopf algebra isomorphism from the algebra of heap-ordered trees to that of quasi-symmetric functions, generated by formal permutations, which is a lift of the natural projection of the Connes-Kreimer algebra of…

Let $\mathbb{A} = (A, \cdot)$ be a semigroup. We generalize some recent results by G. A. Freiman, M. Herzog and coauthors on the structure theory of set addition from the context of linearly orderable groups to linearly orderable…

While the theory of labelled well-quasi-order has received significant attention in the graph setting, it has not yet been considered in the context of permutation patterns. We initiate this study here, and show how labelled well quasi…

We present a hereditary class of graphs of unbounded clique-width which is well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph relation. This result provides a negative answer to the question asked by Daligault, Rao and Thomass\'e in…

Higher-order probabilistic programming languages allow programmers to write sophisticated models in machine learning and statistics in a succinct and structured way, but step outside the standard measure-theoretic formalization of…

We discuss the theory of certain partially ordered sets that capture the structure of commutation classes of words in monoids. As a first application, it follows readily that counting words in commutation classes is #P-complete. We then…

Lezama \cite{LezamaLatorre2017} introduced the notion of semi-graded ring with the aim of generalizing $\mathbb{Z}$-graded rings and several families of noncommutative rings of polynomial type non-$\mathbb{N}$-graded such as the skew…

Sorting is a foundational problem in computer science that is typically employed on sequences or total orders. More recently, a more general form of sorting on partially ordered sets (or posets), where some pairs of elements are…

In the present paper we propose a new approach on `distributed systems': the processes are represented through total orders and the communications are characterized by means of biorders. The resulting distributed systems capture situations…

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…

The well-quasi-orders (WQO) play an important role in various fields such as Computer Science, Logic or Graph Theory. Since the class of WQOs lacks closure under some important operations, the proof that a certain quasi-order is WQO…

Drawing inspiration from Emmy Noether'set-theoretic foundations for algebra and Charles Ehresmann's topology without points, we adopt a new order-theoretic approach to ideal theory. For this we emphasize the order of divisibility in…

A quasi-hereditary algebra is an Artin algebra together with a partial order on its set of isomorphism classes of simple modules which satisfies certain conditions. In this article we investigate all the possible choices that yield to…

We study transfinite extensions of Japaridze's provability logic GLP and the well-founded relations that naturally occur within them. Every ordinal induces a partial order over the class of "words," which are iterated consistency statements…

We develop a quasisymmetric analogue of the combinatorial theory of Schubert polynomials and the associated divided difference operators. Our counterparts are "forest polynomials", and a new family of linear operators, whose theory of…

It came to the attention of myself and the coauthors of (S., Rozowski, Silva, Rot, 2022) that a number of process calculi can be obtained by algebraically presenting the branching structure of the transition systems they specify. Labelled…

We study the well-posedness of a linear control system $\Sigma(A,B,C,D)$ with unbounded control and observation operators. To this end we associate to our system an operator matrix $\mathcal{A}$ on a product space $\mathcal{X}^p$ and call…

An order-theoretic forest is a countable partial order such that the set of elements larger than any element is linearly ordered. It is an order-theoretic tree if any two elements have an upper-bound. The order type of a branch can be any…

It is known that the set of permutations, under the pattern containment ordering, is not a partial well-order. Characterizing the partially well-ordered closed sets (equivalently: down sets or ideals) in this poset remains a wide-open…
