In this paper, we compute the distributions of the statistic number of crossings over permutations avoiding one of the pairs $\{321,231\}$, $\{123,132\}$ and $\{123,213\}$. The obtained results are new combinatorial interpretations of two…
Given integers $p,q,t$ with $1 \le t \le p$ and $1 \le q \le h_p(t)$, a strong $(p,q,t)$-coloring of the Boolean lattice $B_n$ is a coloring of its $t$-chains such that every induced copy of $B_p$ in $B_n$ uses at least $q$ colors on its…
In this paper we study maximal chains in certain lattices constructed from powers of chains by iterated lax colimits in the $2$-category of posets. Such a study is motivated by the fact that in lower dimensions, we get some familiar…
For two posets $(P,\le_P)$ and $(P',\le_{P'})$, we say that $P'$ contains a copy of $P$ if there exists an injective function $f\colon P'\to P$ such that for every two $X,Y\in P$, $X\le_P Y$ if and only if $f(X)\le_{P'} f(Y)$. Given two…
In popular event generators of high energy reaction, the large Nc, the number of color approximation is implied, which reduces the possible interference effects, and the probability of color singlet chain reaches to about 100%. In $Nc=3$…
An induced subposet $(P_2,\le_2)$ of a poset $(P_1,\le_1)$ is a subset of $P_1$ such that for every two $X,Y\in P_2$, $X\le_2 Y$ if and only if $X\le_1 Y$. The Boolean lattice $Q_n$ of dimension $n$ is the poset consisting of all subsets of…
Although every exactly known bond percolation critical threshold is the root in $[0,1]$ of a lattice-dependent polynomial, it has recently been shown that the notion of a critical polynomial can be extended to any periodic lattice. The…
We introduce a new variant of graph coloring called correspondence coloring which generalizes list coloring and allows for reductions previously only possible for ordinary coloring. Using this tool, we prove that excluding cycles of lengths…
A lower bound is obtained for the greatest possible number of colors in an interval colourings of some regular graphs.
We develop an algorithm for efficiently computing recursively defined functions on posets. We illustrate this algorithm by disproving conjectures about the game Subset Takeaway (Chomp on a hypercube) and computing the number of linear…
A poset has the non-messing-up property if it has two covering sets of disjoint saturated chains so that for any labeling of the poset, sorting the labels along one set of chains and then sorting the labels along the other set yields a…
Let G be an n-vertex graph with list-chromatic number $\chi_\ell$. Suppose each vertex of G is assigned a list of t colors. Albertson, Grossman, and Haas conjecture that at least $t n / {\chi_\ell}$ vertices can be colored from these lists.…
We propose a simple quantum network to detect multipartite entangled states of bosons, and show how to implement this network for neutral atoms stored in an optical lattice. We investigate the special properties of cluster states,…
The pattern avoidance problem seeks to construct a set $X\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with large dimension that avoids a prescribed pattern. Examples of such patterns include three-term arithmetic progressions (solutions to $x_1 - 2x_2 + x_3 =…
The existence of greatest lower bounds in the imbalance order of path-length sequences of binary trees is seen to be a consequence of a joint monotonicity property of the greater and lower expension operations. Path length sequences that…
The goal of this paper is to prove that several variants of deciding whether a poset can be (weakly) embedded into a small Boolean lattice, or to a few consecutive levels of a Boolean lattice, are NP-complete, answering a question of Griggs…
We introduce a variant of the vertex-distinguishing edge coloring problem, where each edge is assigned a subset of colors. The label of a vertex is the union of the sets of colors on edges incident to it. In this paper we investigate the…
We explore the enumeration of some natural classes of graded posets, including all graded posets, (2+2)- and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets, (2+2)-avoiding graded posets, and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets. We obtain enumerative and structural…
An updated review is presented of our understanding of color confinement. Lattice results on condensation of magnetic charges are discussed. The role of vortices is analysed.
Coordination sequences of periodic and quasiperiodic graphs are analysed. These count the number of points that can be reached from a given point of the graph by a number of steps along its bonds, thus generalising the familiar coordination…
