The Weihrauch degrees and strong Weihrauch degrees are partially ordered structures representing degrees of unsolvability of various mathematical problems. Their study has been widely applied in computable analysis, complexity theory, and…
We explore the low levels of the structure of the continuous Weihrauch degrees of first-order problems. In particular, we show that there exists a minimal discontinuous first-order degree, namely that of $\accn$, without any determinacy…
We establish recursions counting various classes of chains in the noncrossing partition lattice of a finite Coxeter group. The recursions specialize a general relation which is proven uniformly (i.e. without appealing to the classification…
A weak order on the set of maximal chains of the non-crossing partition lattice is introduced and studied. A $0$-Hecke algebra action is used to compute the radius of the graph on these chains in which two chains are adjacent if they differ…
This paper investigates the Hausdorff dimension properties of chains and antichains in Turing degrees and hyperarithmetic degrees. Our main contributions are threefold: First, for antichains in hyperarithmetic degrees, we prove that every…
A structural condition is given for finite maximal antichains in the homomorphism order of relational structures to have the splitting property. It turns out that non-splitting antichains appear only at the bottom of the order. Moreover, we…
We answer a question by Vasco Brattka and Guido Gherardi by proving that the Weihrauch-lattice is not a Brouwer algebra. The computable Weihrauch-lattice is also not a Heyting algebra, but the continuous Weihrauch-lattice is. We further…
In this paper, we study the existence of minimal covers and strong minimal covers in the Weihrauch degrees. We characterize when a problem $f$ is a minimal cover or strong minimal cover of a problem $h$. We show that strong minimal covers…
We establish one-to-one correspondences between maximal antichains in products of two finite linear orders and other mathematical objects, such as certain alignments of two strings, walks on a grid, lattice paths, words of two or three…
Motivated by applications to information retrieval, we study the lattice of antichains of finite intervals of a locally finite, totally ordered set. Intervals are ordered by reverse inclusion; the order between antichains is induced by the…
Rival and Zaguia showed that the antichain cutsets of a finite Boolean lattice are exactly the level sets. We show that a similar characterization of antichain cutsets holds for any strongly connected poset of locally finite height. As a…
Given a map $f \colon E \longrightarrow F$ between Banach spaces (or Banach lattices), a set $A$ of $E$-valued bounded sequences, ${\bf x} \in A$ and a vector topology $\tau$ on $F$, we investigate the existence of an infinite dimensional…
The two closely related Lorentz-invariant partial orders of space-time are distinguished with respect to the existence of antichain cutsets and the possibility of grading. World lines of particles with or without mass are the maximal chains…
We study the equational theory of the Weihrauch lattice with multiplication, meaning the collection of equations between terms built from variables, the lattice operations $\sqcup$, $\sqcap$, the product $\times$, and the finite…
In the combinatorics of finite finite Coxeter groups, there is a simple formula giving the number of maximal chains of noncrossing partitions. It is a reinterpretation of a result by Deligne which is due to Chapoton, and the goal of this…
We construct a special type of antichain (i. e., a family of subsets of a set, such that no subset is contained in another) using group-theoretical considerations, and obtain an upper bound on the cardinality of such an antichain. We apply…
We construct a nonrecursive set \(A\le_T\emptyset'\) and a uniformly computable family of sets \(C_0,C_1,\dots\), all bounded finite-one equivalent to \(A\), such that the corresponding \(1\)-degrees form a copy of the dense linear order…
We investigate the maximum length of a chain of subsemigroups in various classes of semigroups, such as the full transformation semigroups, the general linear semigroups, and the semigroups of order-preserving transformations of finite…
We study how the existence in an algebraic lattice $L$ of a chain of a given type is reflected in the join-semilattice $K(L)$ of its compact elements. We show that for every chain $\alpha$ of size $\kappa$, there is a set $\B$ of at most…
We show that in a rank supersolvable lattice that is graded by a bounded real interval, any antichain cutset is a level set for some appropriately constructed grading. As a consequence, given an antichain cutset in any of the measurable…
