Given a monomial ideal $I$ with minimal free resolution $\mathcal{F}$ supported in characteristic $p>0$ on a CW-complex $X$ with regular $2$-skeleton, we construct a CW-complex $Y$ that also supports~$\mathcal{F}$ and such that the face…
In this article, we study Chow polynomials of weakly ranked posets and prove the existence of Gorenstein algebras with the K\"ahler package such that their Hilbert--Poincar\'e series agrees with the Chow polynomial. Our statement provides…
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 establish a number of foundational results on Poincar\'e spaces which result in several applications. One application settles an old conjecture of C.T.C. Wall in the affirmative. Another result shows that for any natural number n, there…
The cross--product conjecture (CPC) of Brightwell, Felsner and Trotter (1995) is a two-parameter quadratic inequality for the number of linear extensions of a poset $P= (X, \prec)$ with given value differences on three distinct elements in…
In this paper, we are concerned with identifying among the family of posets associated with Kohnert polynomials, those whose order complex has a certain combinatorial property. In particular, for numerous families of Kohnert polynomials,…
The interleaving distance, although originally developed for persistent homology, has been generalized to measure the distance between functors modeled on many posets or even small categories. Existing theories require that such a poset…
We examine the lattice of all order congruences of a finite poset from the viewpoint of combinatorial algebraic topology. We will prove that the order complex of the lattice of all nontrivial order congruences (or order-preserving…
Let $\mathfrak{P}_r$ be a representation system of the non-isomorphic finite posets, and let ${\cal H}(P,Q)$ be the set of order homomorphisms from $P$ to $Q$. For finite posets $R$ and $S$, we write $R \sqsubseteq_G S$ iff, for every $P…
A partition of a finite poset into chains places a natural upper bound on the size of a union of k antichains. A chain partition is k-saturated if this bound is achieved. Greene and Kleitman proved that, for each k, every finite poset has a…
We introduce the notion of a \emph{resolution supported on a poset}. When the poset is a CW-poset, i.e. the face poset of a regular CW-complex, we recover the notion of cellular resolution as introduced by Bayer and Sturmfels. Work of…
For each permutation $w$, we consider the set $\mathrm{PD}(w)$ of reduced pipe dreams for $w$, partially ordered so that cover relations correspond to (generalized) chute moves. Settling a conjecture of Rubey from 2012, we prove that…
The concept of a matroid quotient has connections to fundamental questions in the geometry of flag varieties. In previous work, Benedetti and Knauer characterized quotients in the class of lattice path matroids (LPMs) in terms of a simple…
For a bounded and graded poset $P$, we show that if $P$ is EL-shellable, then so is its $t$-fold Segre power $P^{(t)}=P\circ \cdots \circ P$ ($t$ factors), as defined by Bj\"orner and Welker [J. Pure Appl. Algebra, 198(1-3), 43--55 (2005)].…
We define a poset of partitions associated to an operad. We prove that the operad is Koszul if and only if the poset is Cohen-Macaulay. In one hand, this characterisation allows us to compute the homology of the poset. This homology is…
The queue number of a poset is the queue number of its cover graph when the vertex order is a linear extension of the poset. Heath and Pemmaraju conjectured that every poset of width $w$ has queue number at most $w$. The conjecture has been…
We introduce a formal definition of a pattern poset which encompasses several previously studied posets in the literature. Using this definition we present some general results on the M\"obius function and topology of such pattern posets.…
We study the poset topology of lattices arising from orientations of 1-skeleta of directionally simple polytopes, with Bruhat interval polytopes $Q_{e,w}$ as our main example. We show that the order complex $\Delta ((u,v)_w)$ of an interval…
The $1/3$-$2/3$ Conjecture, originally formulated in 1968, is one of the best-known open problems in the theory of posets, stating that the balance constant (a quantity determined by the linear extensions) of any non-total order is at least…
We investigate a certain class of posets arising from semilattice actions. Let $S$ be a semilattice with identity. Let $S$ act on a set $C$. For $c,d\in C$ put $c\leq d$ iff there is some $s\in S$ with $ds=c$. Then $(C,\leq)$ is a poset.…
