A poset ${\mathbb{P}}$ is called reversible iff every bijective homomorphism $f:{\mathbb{P}} \rightarrow {\mathbb{P}}$ is an automorphism. Let ${\mathcal{W}}$ and ${\mathcal{W}} ^*$ denote the classes of well orders and their inverses…
For each composition $\vec{c}$ we show that the order complex of the poset of pointed set partitions $\Pi^{\bullet}_{\vec{c}}$ is a wedge of spheres of the same dimension with the multiplicity given by the number of permutations with…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of $\mathcal{M}$-convergence and $\mathcal{MN}$-convergence structures in posets, which, in some sense, generalise the well-known Scott-convergence and order-convergence structures. As results, we give…
Under large cardinal hypotheses beyond the Kunen inconsistency -- hypotheses so strong as to contradict the Axiom of Choice -- we solve several variants of the generalized continuum problem and identify structural features of the levels…
The W-set of an element of a weak order poset is useful in the cohomological study of the closures of spherical subgroups in generalized flag varieties. We explicitly describe in a purely combinatorial manner the W-sets of the weak order…
One of possible cryptomorphic definitions of a partially ordered set (= a poset) $P$ on a non-empty finite basic set $N$ is in terms of the set ${\cal L}(P)$ of all its linear extensions, that is, in terms of the set of total orders of $N$…
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 prove that on many inaccessible there is a Jonsson algebra, so e.g. the first regular Jonsson cardinal lambda which is lambda x omega-Mahlo. We give further restrictions on successor of singulars which are Jonsson cardinals. E.g. there…
For a partially ordered set P, we denote by Co(P) the lattice of order-convex subsets of P. We find three new lattice identities, (S), (U), and (B), such that the following result holds. Theorem. Let L be a lattice. Then L embeds into some…
S. Gudder and, later, S. Pulmanova and E. Vincekova, have studied in two recent papers a certain ordering of bounded self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space. We present some further results on this ordering and show that some structure…
In this paper we study finite Eulerian posets which are binomial, Sheffer or triangular. These important classes of posets are related to the theory of generating functions and to geometry. The results of this paper are organized as…
Given an inaccessible J\'onsson cardinal $\lambda$, a sequence of results due to Shelah from Cardinal Arithmetic and Sh413 tell us that $\lambda$ must be at least $\lambda\times\omega$-Mahlo. We may then ask ourselves whether we can improve…
A space $Y$ is called an {\em extension} of a space $X$ if $Y$ contains $X$ as a dense subspace. Two extensions of $X$ are said to be {\em equivalent} if there is a homeomorphism between them which fixes $X$ point-wise. For two (equivalence…
If L is an order polynomially complete lattice, (that is: every monotone function from L^n to L is induced by a lattice-theoretic polynomial) then the cardinality of L is a strongly inaccessible cardinal. In particular, the existence of…
For a (finite) partially ordered set (poset) $P$, we call a dominating set $D$ in the comparability graph of $P$, an order-sensitive dominating set in $P$ if either $x\in D$ or else $a<x<b$ in $P$ for some $a,b\in D$ for every element $x$…
A brief introduction to the theory of ordered sets and lattice theory is given. To illustrate proof techniques in the theory of ordered sets, a generalization of a conjecture of Daykin and Daykin, concerning the structure of posets that can…
A poset is called upper homogeneous (or "upho") if every principal order filter of the poset is isomorphic to the whole poset. We observe that the rank and characteristic generating functions of upho posets are multiplicative inverses of…
We introduce a new covering property, defined in terms of order types of sequences of open sets, rather than in terms of cardinalities of families. The most general form of this compactness notion depends on two ordinal parameters. In the…
We generalized the characterization of H-closedness for linearly ordered pospaces as follows: A pospace $X$ without an infinite antichain is an H-closed pospace if and only if $X$ is a directed complete and down-complete poset such that sup…
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to a crucial computational error. In this paper we deal with the finite case. We prove that a finite bounded ordered set can be represented as the order of principal congruences of a finite…
