S.Janson [Poset limits and exchangeable random posets, Combinatorica 31 (2011), 529--563] defined limits of finite posets in parallel to the emerging theory of limits of dense graphs. We prove that each poset limit can be represented as a…
Aharoni and Korman (Order 9 (1992) 245--253) have conjectured that every ordered set without infinite antichains possesses a chain and a partition into antichains so that each part intersects the chain. The conjecture is verified for posets…
We employ the combinatorial atlas technology to prove new correlation inequalities for the number of linear extensions of finite posets. These include the approximate independence of probabilities and expectations of values of random linear…
For any finite totally ordered set, the multisets of intervals form an abelian category. Various classes of subcategories admit natural combinatorial descriptions, and counting them yields familiar integer sequences. Surprisingly, in some…
The purpose of this paper is to study stable representations of partially ordered sets (posets) and compare it to the well known theory for quivers. In particular, we prove that every indecomposable representation of a poset of finite type…
We prove that a typical compact set does not contain any similar copy of a given pattern. We also prove that a typical compact set of $[0,1]^{d} (d\geq 2)$ intersects any $(d-1)$-dimensional plane in at most $d$ points. We study the…
In section 1 we consider a 3-tuple $S=(|S|,\preccurlyeq,E)$ where $|S|$ is a finite set, $\preccurlyeq$ a partial ordering on $|S|,$ and $E$ a set of unordered pairs of distinct members of $|S|,$ and study, as a function of $n\geq 0,$ the…
For a set of non-negative integers $L$, the $L$-intersection number of a graph is the smallest number $l$ for which there is an assignment on the vertices to subsets $A_v \subseteq \{1,\dots, l\}$, such that every two vertices $u,v$ are…
In this note, we use the intersection number to determine explicitly the balanced cone of the small resolution of the quintic conifold.
We compare a traditional and non-traditional view on the subject of P-partitions, leading to formulas counting linear extensions of certain posets.
An antichain of subsets is a set of subsets such that no subset in the antichain is a proper subset of any other subset in the antichain. The Dedekind number counts the total number of antichains of subsets of an n-element set. This paper…
We show how to represent sets in a linear space data structure such that expressions involving unions and intersections of sets can be computed in a worst-case efficient way. This problem has applications in e.g. information retrieval and…
In this paper, we describe the structure of maximal non-trivial uniform $t$-intersecting families with large size for finite sets. In the special case when $t=1$, our result gives rise to Kostochka and Mubayi's result in 2017.
Determining the maximum number of edges in an intersecting hypergraph on a fixed ground set under additional constraints is one of the central topics in extremal combinatorics. In contrast, there are few results on analogous problems…
Motivated by recent work on mixtures of classical and free probabilities, we introduce and study the notion of $\epsilon$-noncrossing partitions. It is shown that the set of such partitions forms a lattice, which interpolates as a poset…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the set of all connected graphs on vertex set $[n]$. Define the partial ordering $<$ on $\mathcal{G}$ as follows: for $G,H\in \mathcal{G}$ let $G<H$ if $E(G)\subset E(H)$. The poset $(\mathcal{G},<)$ is graded, each…
The following class of problems arose out of vain attempts to show that the Pascal's triangle adic transformation has trivial spectrum. Partition a set of size $N$ into sets of size $S \equiv S(N)$ (ignoring leftovers). What is the…
In this paper we investigate the conformation statistics of a Gaussian chain embedded in a medium of finite size, in the presence of quenched random obstacles. The similarities and differences between the case of random obstacles and the…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and let $L$ be a set of nonnegative integers. The family $\mathcal{F}$ is \emph{$L$-intersecting} if $|F\cap F'|\in L$ for every two distinct members $F,F'\in\mathcal{F}$; and…
