In the theory of partially-ordered sets, the two-dimensional Boolean lattice is known as the diamond. In this paper, we show that, if $\mathcal{F}$ is a family in the $n$-dimensional Boolean lattice that has no diamond as a subposet, then…
We develop a powerful tool for embedding any tree poset $P$ of height $k$ in the Boolean lattice which allows us to solve several open problems in the area. We show that: * If $H$ is a family in $B_n$ with $|H|\ge (q-1+\varepsilon){n\choose…
For a given positive integer $k$ we say that a family of subsets of $[n]$ is $k$-antichain saturated if it does not contain $k$ pairwise incomparable sets, but whenever we add to it a new set, we do find $k$ such sets. The size of the…
In the area of forbidden subposet problems we look for the largest possible size $La(n,P)$ of a family $\mathcal{F}\subseteq 2^{[n]}$ that does not contain a forbidden inclusion pattern described by $P$. The main conjecture of the area…
We call a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$ $s$-saturated if it contains no $s$ pairwise disjoint sets, and moreover no set can be added to $\mathcal{F}$ while preserving this property (here $[n] = \{1,\ldots,n\}$). More than 40…
Given a poset $P$ we say a family $\mathcal{F}\subseteq P$ is centered if it is obtained by `taking sets as close to the middle layer as possible'. A poset $P$ is said to have the centeredness property if for any $M$, among all families of…
What is the smallest size of a family of subsets of $[n]$ such that it does not contain an induced copy of $Q_2$ as a poset (known as the \textit{diamond}), but adding a new set creates such a copy? It is easy to see that a maximal chain…
The problem of determining the maximum size $La(n,P)$ that a $P$-free subposet of the Boolean lattice $B_n$ can have, attracted the attention of many researchers, but little is known about the induced version of these problems. In this…
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…
Given a set $X$, a collection $\mathcal{F} \subset \mathcal{P}(X)$ is said to be $k$-Sperner if it does not contain a chain of length $k+1$ under set inclusion and it is saturated if it is maximal with respect to this probability. Gerbner…
For given positive integers $k$ and $n$, a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ is $k$-antichain saturated if it does not contain an antichain of size $k$, but adding any set to $\mathcal{F}$ creates an antichain of size $k$.…
We say that a poset $(Q,\le_{Q})$ contains an induced copy of a poset $(P,\le_P)$ if there is an injective function $\phi\colon P\to Q$ such that for every two $X,Y\in P$,\;\;$X\le_P Y$ if and only if $\phi(X)\le_Q \phi(Y)$. We denote the…
For a given finite poset $P$, $La(n,P)$ denotes the largest size of a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$ not containing $P$ as a weak subposet. We exactly determine $La(n,P)$ for infinitely many $P$ posets. These posets are built from…
The $\mathcal{N}$ poset consists of four distinct sets $W,X,Y,Z$ such that $W\subset X$, $Y\subset X$, and $Y\subset Z$ where $W$ is not necessarily a subset of $Z$. A family $\mathcal{F}$ as a subposet of the $n$-dimensional Boolean…
We prove that for every poset $P$, there is a constant $C$ such that the size of any family of subsets of $[n]$ that does not contain $P$ as an induced subposet is at most $C{\binom{n}{\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor}}$, settling a conjecture of…
Let $B_n$ be the poset generated by the subsets of $[n]$ with the inclusion as relation and let $P$ be a finite poset. We want to embed $P$ into $B_n$ as many times as possible such that the subsets in different copies are incomparable. The…
Let $P$ be a partially ordered set. The function $\mbox{La}^{\#}(n,P)$ denotes the size of the largest family $\mathcal{F}\subset 2^{[n]}$ that does not contain an induced copy of $P$. It was proved by Methuku and P\'alv\"olgyi that there…
For every integer $n$ with $n \geq 6$, we prove that the Boolean dimension of a poset consisting of all the subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ equipped with the inclusion relation is strictly less than $n$.
For two posets $P$ and $Q$, we say $Q$ is $P$-free if there does not exist any order-preserving injection from $P$ to $Q$. The speical case for $Q$ being the Boolean lattice $B_n$ is well-studied, and the optiamal value is denoted as…
Let $F$ be a family of subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. We say that $F$ is $P$-free if the inclusion order on $F$ does not contain $P$ as an induced subposet. The \emph{Tur\'an function} of $P$, denoted $\pi^*(n,P)$, is the maximum size of a…
