We describe automorphisms and derivations of the incidence coalgebra $\text{Co}(X,F)$ of the partially ordered set $X$ over a field $F$. In this case, the fact is significantly used that the dual algebra of the coalgebra $\text{Co}(X,F)$ is…

For a given ring $\mathfrak{R}$ and a locally finite pre-ordered set $(X, \leq)$, consider $I(X, \mathfrak{R})$ to be the incidence algebra of $X$ over $\mathfrak{R}$. Motivated by a Xiao's result which states that every Jordan derivation…
