The elements of a finite nonempty partially ordered set are exposed at independent uniform times in $[0,1]$ to a selector who, at any given time, can see the structure of the induced partial order on the exposed elements. The selector's…

In this paper we demonstrate that it is consistent, relative to the existence of a supercompact cardinal, that there is no linear order which is minimal with respect to being non $\sigma$-scattered. This shows that a theorem of Laver, which…

We use methods of combinatorial number theory to prove that, for each $n>1$ and any prime $p$, some homotopy group $\pi_i(SU(n))$ contains an element of order $p^{n-1+ord_p([n/p]!)}$, where $ord_p(m)$ denotes the largest integer $\alpha$…

Recently, Andrews introduced separable integer partition classes and studied some well-known theorems. In this article, we will consider the types of partitions with restrictions on consecutive parts. We will show that such partitions are…

If A is infinite and well-ordered, then |2^A|<=|Part(A)|<=|A^A|.

In this paper, we present a generalization of one of the theorems in [G. E. Andrews, Partitions with parts separated by parity, \textit{Annals of Combinatorics} \textbf{23}(2019), 241 - 248], and give its bijective proof. Further variations…

We define, for an arbitrary partially ordered set, a multi-variable polynomial generalizing the hook polynomial.

A density matrix $\rho$ may be represented in many different ways as a mixture of pure states, $\rho = \sum_i p_i |\psi_i\ra \la \psi_i|$. This paper characterizes the class of probability distributions $(p_i)$ that may appear in such a…

We prove that for every partially ordered set $P$, there exists $c(P)$ such that every family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]$ ordered by inclusion and which contains no induced copy of $P$ satisfies $\sum_{F\in \mathcal{F}}1/{n\choose…

In this paper, we give a purely bijective proof that two different partition classes that are both combinatorial interpretations of the partition function $p_\nu(n)$, a partition function related to the third order mock theta function…

We provide a method of constructing better-quasi-orders by generalising a technique for constructing operator algebras that was developed by Pouzet. We then generalise the notion of $\sigma$-scattered to partial orders, and use our method…

Let $(P,\leq)$ be a partially ordered set and let $\tau$ be a compact topology on $P$ that is finer than the interval topology. Then $\tau$ is contained in the order (convergence) topology on $(P,\tau)$. So any Priestley topology is…

We study statistics on ordered set partitions whose generating functions are related to $p,q$-Stirling numbers of the second kind. The main purpose of this paper is to provide bijective proofs of all the conjectures of \stein…

Recently, Andrews introduced separable integer partition classes and studied some well-known theorems. In this atricle, we will investigate six types of partitions from the view of the point of separable integer partition classes.

We analyse partitions of products with two ordered factors in two classes where both factors are countable or well-ordered and at least one of them is countable. This relates the partition properties of these products to cardinal…

We give a new proof of a partition theorem popularly known as Elder's theorem, but which is also credited to Stanley and Fine. We extend the theorem to the context of colored partitions (or prefabs). More specifically, we give analogous…

We consider the cardinal sequences of compact scattered spaces in models where CH is false. We describe a number of models where the continuum is aleph_2 in which no such space can have aleph_2 countable levels.

The pentagonal number theorem is extended to the sequence of the number of integer partitions with all parts equal. The new pentagonal number theorem implies that the distribution of the primes is just a specific detail of the application…

Let $F$ be a number field, and $D$ be a quaternion $F$-algebra. We show that the class number of any residually unramified $O_F$-order (e.g. an Eichler order) in $D$ is divisible by the class number of $F$.

We show that, for a certain class of partitions and an even number of variables of which half are reciprocals of the other half, Schur polynomials can be factorized into products of odd and even orthogonal characters. We also obtain related…
