For any finite path $v$ on the square grid consisting of north and east unit steps, starting at (0,0), we construct a poset Tam$(v)$ that consists of all the paths weakly above $v$ with the same number of north and east steps as $v$. For…
Given a lattice path $\nu$, the $\nu$-Tamari lattice and the $\nu$-Dyck lattice are two natural examples of partial order structures on the set of lattice paths that lie weakly above $\nu$. In this paper, we introduce a more general family…
The $m$-Tamari lattices $\mathcal{T}_{n}^{(m)}$, introduced by Bergeron and Pr{\'e}ville-Ratelle, are defined as a poset of $m$-Dyck paths equipped with the generalized rotation order, and constitute a Fuss-Catalan generalization of the…
In this article we introduce the $m$-cover poset of an arbitrary bounded poset $\mathcal{P}$, which is a certain subposet of the $m$-fold direct product of $\mathcal{P}$ with itself. Its ground set consists of multichains of $\mathcal{P}$…
Assume that we embed the path $P_n$ as a subgraph of a $2$-dimensional grid, namely, $P_k \times P_l$. Given such an embedding, we consider the ordered set of subpaths $L_1, L_2, \ldots , L_m$ which are maximal straight segments in the…
The poset of maximal tubings of a graph generalizes several well-known and remarkable partial orders. Notable examples include the weak Bruhat order and the Tamari lattice, posets of maximal tubings for the complete graph and the path…
We count the number of linear intervals in the Tamari and the Dyck lattices according to their height, using generating series and Lagrange inversion. Surprisingly, these numbers are the same in both lattices. We define a new family of…
In this paper, we study the maximal chains of lattices which generalizes both the weak order and the Tamari lattice: certain lattices of maximal tubings. A maximal tubing poset $\mathfrak{L}(G)$ is defined for any graph $G$, but for the…
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…
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.,…
The classical Chung-Feller theorem [2] tells us that the number of Dyck paths of length $n$ with $m$ flaws is the $n$-th Catalan number and independent on $m$. In this paper, we consider the refinements of Dyck paths with flaws by four…
The $m$-Tamari lattices $\mathcal{T}_{n}^{(m)}$ were recently introduced by Bergeron and Pr\'eville-Ratelle as posets on $m$-Dyck paths, and it was shown by Bousquet-M\'elou, Fusy and Pr\'eville-Ratelle that these lattices form intervals in…
For each complete meet-semilattice $M$, we define an operator $\mathsf{Pop}_M:M\to M$ by \[\mathsf{Pop}_M(x)=\bigwedge(\{y\in M:y\lessdot x\}\cup\{x\}).\] When $M$ is the right weak order on a symmetric group, $\mathsf{Pop}_M$ is the…
A special case of a conjecture by Thomass\'e is that any oriented graph with minimum outdegree k contains a dipath of length 2k. For the sake of proving whether or not a counterexample exists, we present reductions and establish bounds on…
The degree of symmetry of a combinatorial object, such as a lattice path, is a measure of how symmetric the object is. It typically ranges from zero, if the object is completely asymmetric, to its size, if it is completely symmetric. We…
For fixed non-negative integers $k$, $t$, and $n$, with $t < k$, a $k_t$-Dyck path of length $(k+1)n$ is a lattice path that starts at $(0, 0)$, ends at $((k+1)n, 0)$, stays weakly above the line $y = -t$, and consists of steps from the…
A dispersed Dyck path (DDP) of length n is a lattice path on $N\times N$ from (0,0) to (n,0) in which the following steps are allowed: "up" (x, y) $\to$ (x+1, y+1); "down" (x, y) $\to$ (x+1, y-1); and "right" (x,0) $\to$ (x+1,0). An ascent…
Non-negative {\L}ukasiewicz paths are special two-dimensional lattice paths never passing below their starting altitude which have only one single special type of down step. They are well-known and -studied combinatorial objects, in…
A graph is path-pairable if for any pairing of its vertices there exist edge-disjoint paths joining the vertices in each pair. We investigate the behaviour of the maximum degree in path-pairable planar graphs. We show that any $n$-vertex…
In the Stanley lattice defined on Dyck paths of size $n$, cover relations are obtained by replacing a valley $DU$ by a peak $UD$. We investigate a greedy version of this lattice, first introduced by Chenevi\`ere, where cover relations…
