For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…

The $M$-triangle of a ranked locally finite poset $P$ is the generating function $\sum_{u,w\in P} ^{}\mu(u,w) x^{\rk u}y^{\rk w}$, where $\mu(.,.)$ is the M\"obius function of $P$. We compute the $M$-triangle of Armstrong's poset of…
