In this paper, we prove that the set of triangulations of a polygon can be equipped with an order to become a lattice. First, we define this order. In [HN99], authors defined the flip operator and then prove some properties of the graph of…
Diamond "lattices" are sequences of recursively-defined graphs that provide a network of directed pathways between two fixed root nodes, $A$ and $B$. The construction recipe for diamond graphs depends on a branching number $b\in \mathbb{N}$…
