A variety of possible extensions of mappings between posets to their Dedekind order completion is presented. One of such extensions has recently been used for solving large classes of nonlinear systems of partial differential equations with…

Partially ordered sets (posets) play a universal role as an abstract structure in many areas of mathematics. For finite posets, an explicit enumeration of distinct partial orders on a set of unlabelled elements is known only up to a…

We consider 'supersaturation' problems in partially ordered sets (posets) of the following form. Given a finite poset $P$ and an integer $m$ greater than the cardinality of the largest antichain in $P$, what is the minimum number of…

A quotient of a poset $P$ is a partial order obtained on the equivalence classes of an equivalence relation $\theta$ on $P$; $\theta$ is then called a congruence if it satisfies certain conditions, which vary according to different…

This paper presents an effective and reliable pose tracking solution, termed ERPoT, for mobile robots operating in large-scale outdoor and challenging indoor environments, underpinned by an innovative prior polygon map. Especially, to…

Given a finite poset $\mathcal P$, we say that a family $\mathcal F$ of subsets of $[n]$ is $\mathcal P$-saturated if $\mathcal F$ does not contain an induced copy of $\mathcal P$, but adding any other set to $\mathcal F$ creates an induced…

We study the computational problem of checking whether a quantified conjunctive query (a first-order sentence built using only conjunction as Boolean connective) is true in a finite poset (a reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive directed…

In this paper we focus on the map matching problem where the goal is to find a path through a planar graph such that the path through the vertices closely matches a given polygonal curve. The map matching problem is usually approached with…

Classical problems of sorting and searching assume an underlying linear ordering of the objects being compared. In this paper, we study a more general setting, in which some pairs of objects are incomparable. This generalization is relevant…

We show that every poset P=(P,\le) satisfying the Ascending Chain Condition can be isomorphically embedded into the poset of all mappings from P to the set A(P) of all antichains of P equipped with a certain partial order relation. This…

We analyse domination between invariant types in o-minimal expansions of ordered groups, showing that the domination poset decomposes as the direct product of two posets: the domination poset of an o-minimal expansion of a real closed…

We study the problems of covering or partitioning a polygon $P$ (possibly with holes) using a minimum number of small pieces, where a small piece is a connected sub-polygon contained in an axis-aligned unit square. For covering, we seek to…

We introduce a notion of pattern occurrence that generalizes both classical permutation patterns as well as poset containment. Many questions about pattern statistics and avoidance generalize naturally to this setting, and we focus on…

We consider the problem of computing matrix polynomials $p(X)$, where $X$ is a large dense matrix, with as few matrix-matrix multiplications as possible. More precisely, let $\Pi_{2^{m}}^*$ represent the set of polynomials computable with…

The poset of copies of a relational structure ${\mathbb X}$ is the partial order ${\mathbb P} ({\mathbb X} ) := \langle \{ Y \subset X: {\mathbb Y} \cong {\mathbb X}\}, \subset \rangle$ and each similarity of such posets (e.g. isomorphism,…

Inspired by Zhao and Xu's study on which a dcpo can be determined by its Scott closed subsets lattice, we further investigate whether a poset (or dcpo) $P$ is able to be determined by the family $\mathcal Q(P)$ of its Scott compact…

We define a birational map between labelings of a rectangular poset and its associated trapezoidal poset. This map tropicalizes to a bijection between the plane partitions of these posets of fixed height, giving a new bijective proof of a…

A vertex set $S$ of a graph $G$ is geodetic if every vertex of $G$ lies on a shortest path between two vertices in $S$. Given a graph $G$ and $k \in \mathbb N$, the NP-hard Geodetic Set problem asks whether there is a geodetic set of size…

The dimension of a poset $P$, denoted $\dim(P)$, is the least positive integer $d$ for which $P$ is the intersection of $d$ linear extensions of $P$. The maximum dimension of a poset $P$ with $|P|\le 2n+1$ is $n$, provided $n\ge2$, and this…

Maps are a key component in image-based camera localization and visual SLAM systems: they are used to establish geometric constraints between images, correct drift in relative pose estimation, and relocalize cameras after lost tracking. The…
