We consider posets of lattice paths (endowed with a natural order) and begin the study of such structures. We give an algebraic condition to recognize which ones of these posets are lattices. Next we study the class of Dyck lattices (i.e.,…
Gao, Huo, Liu and Ma (2019) proved a result on the existence of paths connecting specified two vertices whose lengths differ by one or two. By using this result, they settled two famous conjectures due to Thomassen (1983). In this paper, we…
The interval number of a graph $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that one can assign to each vertex of $G$ a union of $k$ intervals on the real line, such that $G$ is the intersection graph of these sets, i.e., two vertices are adjacent in $G$ if…
We use purely combinatorial arguments to give a formula to compute all graded Betti numbers of path ideals of line graphs and cycles. As a consequence we can give new and short proofs for the known formulas of regularity and projective…
In this article we use the theory of interval-posets recently introduced by Ch{\^a}tel and Pons in order to describe some interesting families of intervals in the Tamari lattices. These families are defined as interval-posets avoiding…
In a paper by Sapounakis, Tasoulas, and Tsikouras \cite{stt}, the authors count the number of occurrences of patterns of length four in Dyck paths. In this paper we specify in one direction and generalize in another. We only count ballot…
This article focuses on the identification of the number of paths with different lengths between pairs of nodes in complex networks and how, by providing comprehensive information about the network topology, such an information can be…
A nice factorization is given for the characteristic polynomials of intervals in some posets of leaf-labeled forests of rooted binary trees.
We consider a variation of Dyck paths, where additionally to steps $(1,1)$ and $(1,-1)$ down-steps $(1,-j)$, for $j\ge2$ are allowed. We give credits to Emeric Deutsch for that. The enumeration of such objects living in a strip is…
Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation graphs…
In this paper, we study the posets of classes of subgroups of finite group having same set of orders of elements. We show that this poset is a chain only in the case of p-groups and moreover, we characterize all finite groups for which this…
We find a generating function for interval-closed sets of the product of two chains poset by constructing a bijection to certain bicolored Motzkin paths. We also find a functional equation for the generating function of interval-closed sets…
We provide a new strategy to compute the exponential growth constant of enumeration sequences counting walks in lattice path models restricted to the quarter plane. The bounds arise by comparison with half-planes models. In many cases the…
A poset $P= (X, \prec)$ has an interval representation if each $x \in X$ can be assigned a real interval $I_x$ so that $x \prec y$ in $P$ if and only if $I_x$ lies completely to the left of $I_y$. Such orders are called \emph{interval…
We prove new bijections between different variants of Dyck paths and integer compositions, which give combinatorial explanations of their simple counting formula $4^{n-1}$. These give relations between different statistics, such as the…
Inspired by a new mathematical model for bobbin lace, this paper considers finite lattice paths formed from the set of step vectors $\mathfrak{A}=$$\{\rightarrow,$ $\nearrow,$ $\searrow,$ $\uparrow,$ $\downarrow\}$ with the restriction that…
We numerically investigate the scale-free network model of Barab{\'a}si and Albert [A. L. Barab{\'a}si and R. Albert, Science {\bf 286}, 509 (1999)] through the use of various path finding strategies. In real networks, global network…
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…
Consider an $m\times n$ table $T$ and latices paths $\nu_1,\ldots,\nu_k$ in $T$ such that each step $\nu_{i+1}-\nu_i=(1,1)$, $(1,0)$ or $(1,-1)$. The number of paths from the $(1,i)$-blank (resp. first column) to the $(s,t)$-blank is…
An interval matrix is a matrix whose entries are intervals in the set of real numbers. We generalize this concept, which has been broadly studied, to other fields. Precisely we define a rational interval matrix to be a matrix whose entries…
