We show that for an infinite set X, if L is a completely distributive algebraic lattice with not more completely join irreducible elements than the size of the power set of X, then there is a monoidal interval in the clone lattice on X…
Intervals in binary or n-ary relations or other discrete structures generalize the concept of interval in a linearly ordered set. Join-irreducible partitions into intervals are characterized in the lattice of all interval decompositions of…
Consider n unit intervals, say [1,2], [3,4], ..., [2n-1,2n]. Identify their endpoints in pairs at random, with all (2n-1)!! = (2n-1) (2n-3) ... 3 1 pairings being equally likely. The result is a collection of cycles of various lengths, and…
We prove that a nonsymmetric normal entry pattern of order $n$ ($n\ge 3$) has at most $n(n-3)/2+3$ distinct indeterminates and up to permutation similarity this number is attained by a unique pattern which is explicitly described.
We study poset limits given by sequences of finite interval orders or, as a special case, finite semiorders. In the interval order case, we show that every such limit can be represented by a probability measure on the space of closed…
We show that intersection graphs of compact convex sets in R^n of bounded aspect ratio have asymptotic dimension at most 2n+1. More generally, we show this is the case for intersection graphs of systems of subsets of any metric space of…
From any poset isomorphic to the poset of gaps of a numerical semigroup $S$ with the order induced by $S$, one can recover $S$. As an application, we prove that two different numerical semigroups cannot have isomorphic posets (with respect…
The class of intersection bigraphs of unit intervals of the real line whose ends may be open or closed is called a class of mixed unit interval bigraphs. This class of bigraphs is a strict superclass of the class of unit interval bigraphs.…
A poset is (3+1)-free if it does not contain the disjoint union of chains of length 3 and 1 as an induced subposet. These posets play a central role in the (3+1)-free conjecture of Stanley and Stembridge. Lewis and Zhang have enumerated…
Let n points be taken at random on a circle of unit circumference and clockwise ordered. Uniform spacings are defined as the clockwise arc-lengths between the successive points from this sample. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior…
Let ${\cal B}$ be a nontrivial biplane of order $k-2$ represented by symmetric canonical incidence matrix with trace $1+ \binom{k}{2}$. We proved that ${\cal B}$ includes a partially balanced incomplete design with association scheme of…
A class of self-inversive polynomials includes all the self-reciprocal polynomials. Let A denote the set of all self-reciprocal polynomials with n+1 coefficients. Let B denote the set of certain self-inversive and non self-reciprocal…
The distributive property can be studied through bilinear maps and various morphisms between these maps. The adjoint-morphisms between bilinear maps establish a complete abelian category with projectives and admits a duality. Thus the…
In this article we prove in the main theorem that, there is a bijection between the isomorphism classes of a certain type of real hyperplane arrangements on the one hand, and the antipodal pairs of convex cones of an associated…
The set of all permutations, ordered by pattern containment, is a poset. We present an order isomorphism from the poset of permutations with a fixed number of descents to a certain poset of words with subword order. We use this bijection to…
Let X be a finite set. This paper describes some topological and combinatorial properties of the poset \Omega_X of order relations on X. In particular, the homotopy type of all the intervals in \Omega_X is precisely determined, and the…
We show that the biggest possible average set size in the complement $2^{\{1,2,\ldots, n\}} \setminus A$ of a union-closed family $A \subset 2^{\{1,2, \ldots, n\}}$ is $\tfrac{n+1}{2}$. With the same proof we get a sharp upper bound for the…
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…
For delta operator $aD-bD^{p+1}$ we find the corresponding polynomial sequence of binomial type and relations with Fuss numbers. In the case $D-\frac{1}{2}D^2$ we show that the corresponding Bessel-Carlitz polynomials are moments of the…
Rabinovitch showed in 1978 that the interval orders having a representation consisting of only closed unit intervals have order dimension at most 3. This article shows that the same dimension bound applies to two other classes of posets:…
