We study a certain poset on the free monoid on a countable alphabet. This poset is determined by the fact that its total extensions are precisely the standard term orders. We also investigate the poset classifying degree-compatible standard…

The paper is devoted to a categorical study of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The study is based on an isomorphic description of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The isomorphic description was obtained in [3] and…

The basic notions of category theory, such as limit, adjunction, and orthogonality, all involve assertions of the existence and uniqueness of certain arrows. Weak notions arise when one drops the uniqueness requirement and asks only for…

The aim of the present paper is to extend the concept of a congruence from lattices to posets. We use an approach different from that used by the first author and V. Sn\'a\v{s}el. By using our definition we show that congruence classes are…

An $N$-free poset is a poset whose comparability graph does not embed an induced path with four vertices. We use the well-quasi-order property of the class of countable $N$-free posets and some labelled ordered trees to show that a…

Motivated by quite recent research involving the relationship between the dimension of a poset and graph-theoretic properties of its cover graph, we show that for every $d\geq 1$, if $P$ is a poset and the dimension of a subposet $B$ of $P$…

Motivated by generalizing Khovanov's categorification of the Jones polynomial, we study functors $F$ from thin posets $P$ to abelian categories $\mathcal{A}$. Such functors $F$ produce cohomology theories $H^*(P,\mathcal{A},F)$. We find…

For any finite poset we define a generating polynomial counting upsets, downsets, and their intersection. We investigate the behaviour of this polynomial with respect to poset operations, show that it distinguishes series-parallel posets,…

We introduce partially ordered sets (posets) with an additional structure given by a collection of vector subspaces of an algebra $A$. We call them algebraically equipped posets. Some particular cases of these, are generalized equipped…

A poset is representable if it can be embedded in a field of sets in such a way that existing finite meets and joins become intersections and unions respectively (we say finite meets and joins are preserved). More generally, for cardinals…

A poset $\mathbf{P} = (X,\preceq)$ is {\em $m$-partite} if $X$ has a partition $X = X_1 \cup ... \cup X_m$ such that (1) each $X_i$ forms an antichain in $\mathbf{P}$, and (2) $x\prec y$ implies $x\in X_i$ and $y\in X_j$ where $i<j$. In…

In the unidimensional unfolding model, given m objects in general position there arise 1+m(m-1)/2 rankings. The set of rankings is called the ranking pattern of the m given objects. By changing these m objects, we can generate various…

In 1980, Edelman defined a poset on objects called the noncrossing 2-partitions. They are closely related with noncrossing partitions and parking functions. To some extent, his definition is a precursor of the parking space theory, in the…

We introduce and develop the notion of *displayed categories*. A displayed category over a category C is equivalent to "a category D and functor F : D --> C", but instead of having a single collection of "objects of D" with a map to the…

We construct a pairing, which we call factorization homology, between framed manifolds and higher categories. The essential geometric notion is that of a vari-framing of a stratified manifold, which is a framing on each stratum together…

We study two constructions related to the intervals of finite posets. The first one is a poset. The second one is more complicated. Loosely speaking it can be seen as a poset with some extra zero-relations. As main result, we show that…

For a discrete poset $\mathcal X$, McCord proved that the natural map $|{\mathcal X}|\to {\mathcal X}$, from the order complex to the poset with the Up topology, is a weak homotopy equivalence. Much later, \u{Z}ivaljevi\'{c} defined the…

A poset is called upper homogeneous (or "upho") if every principal order filter of the poset is isomorphic to the whole poset. We observe that the rank and characteristic generating functions of upho posets are multiplicative inverses of…
