The interval graph for a set of intervals on a line consists of one vertex for each interval, and an edge for each intersecting pair of intervals. A probe interval graph is a variant that is motivated by an application to genomics, where…
The Dushnik--Miller dimension of a poset $P$ is the least $d$ for which $P$ can be embedded into a product of $d$ chains. Lewis and Souza showed that the dimension of the divisibility order on the interval of integers $[N/\kappa, N]$ is…
For any persistence module $M$ over a finite poset $\mathbf{P}$, and any interval $I$ of $\mathbf{P}$, we give a formula for the multiplicity $d_M(V_I)$ of the interval module $V_I$ in the indecomposable decomposition of $M$ in terms of the…
A toric arrangement is an arrangement of subtori of codimension one in a real or complex torus. The poset of layers is the set of connected components of non-empty intersections of these subtori, partially ordered by reverse inclusion. In…
The purpose of the present paper is to give a realization of a cylindric diagram as a subset of root systems of type $A_{\kappa-1}^{(1)}$ and several characterization of its poset structure. Furthermore, the set of order ideals of a…
We prove that every interval order $P$ with no infinite antichain has a Gallai decomposition. That is, $P$ is a lexicographical sum of proper interval orders over a chain, an antichain or a prime interval order. This is a consequence of the…
It is proved that: each collectively order continuous set of operators from an Archimedean OVS with a generating cone to an OVS is collectively order bounded; and each collectively order to norm bounded set of operators from an ordered…
When solving the Hamiltonian path problem it seems natural to be given additional precedence constraints for the order in which the vertices are visited. For example one could decide whether a Hamiltonian path exists for a fixed starting…
In this paper, a unified framework for representing uncertain information based on the notion of an interval structure is proposed. It is shown that the lower and upper approximations of the rough-set model, the lower and upper bounds of…
In this paper, we focus on ordered $k$-flaw preference sets. Let $\mathcal{OP}_{n,\geq k}$ denote the set of ordered preference sets of length $n$ with at least $k$ flaws and $\mathcal{S}_{n,k}=\{(x_1,...,x_{n-k})\mid x_1+x_2+...…
It is well known that every stable matching instance $I$ has a rotation poset $R(I)$ that can be computed efficiently and the downsets of $R(I)$ are in one-to-one correspondence with the stable matchings of $I$. Furthermore, for every poset…
We introduce partially ordered sets (posets) with an additional structure given by a collection of vector subspaces of an algebra $A$. We call them algebraically equipped posets. Some particular cases of these, are generalized equipped…
In this paper we consider a logical treatment for the ordered disjunction operator 'x' introduced by Brewka, Niemel\"a and Syrj\"anen in their Logic Programs with Ordered Disjunctions (LPOD). LPODs are used to represent preferences in logic…
We prove that every finite poset has a directed cut with at least one half of the poset's pairwise order relations. The bound is tight. Also, the largest directed cut in a poset can be found in linear time.
We call an interval $[x,y]$ in a poset {\em small} if $y$ is the join of some elements covering $x$. In this paper, we study the chains of paths from a given arbitrary (binary) path $P$ to the maximum path having only small intervals. More…
Earlier an arbitrary poset $P$ was proved to be isomorphic to the collection of subsets of a space $M$ with two closures which are closed in the first closure and open in the other. As a space $M$ for this representation an algebraic dual…
The notion of noncrossing partitions of a partially ordered set (poset) is introduced here. When the poset in question is $[n]=\{1,2,\dots, n\}$ with the complete order of natural numbers, conventional noncrossing partitions arise. The…
We focus on the computational aspects of counting interval sizes in the poset $D_n$, which represents all monotone Boolean functions of $n$ variables. We present a resource-aware algorithm enabling the calculation of interval sizes in…
We define interval spacing as the difference in the order statistics of data over a gap of some width. We derive its density, expected value, and variance for uniform, exponential, and logistic variates. We show that interval spacing is…
Well-partial orders, and the ordinal invariants used to measure them, are relevant in set theory, program verification, proof theory and many other areas of computer science and mathematics. In this article we focus on one of the most…
