The ring of locally-constant integer-valued functions on the dominant chamber of the Shi arrangement is endowed with a filtration and a new basis, compatible with this filtration, is found. This basis is compared to the trivial basis. The…

We characterize commutative idempotent involutive residuated lattices as disjoint unions of Boolean algebras arranged over a distributive lattice. We use this description to introduce a new construction, called gluing, that allows us to…

Each finite configuration of points in the plane determines a corresponding lattice of noncrossing partitions. When these points form the vertex set of a convex polygon, the associated lattice is the classical noncrossing partition lattice…

Tukey order are used to compare the cofinal complexity of partially order sets (posets). We prove that there is a $2^\mathfrak{c}$-sized collection of sub-posets in $2^\omega$ which forms an antichain in the sense of Tukey ordering. Using…

A resolution of the intersection of a finite number of subgroups of an abelian group by means of their sums is constructed, provided the lattice generated by these subgroups is distributive. This is used for detecting singularities of…

We study the class of (locally) anti-blocking bodies as well as some associated classes of convex bodies. For these bodies, we prove geometric inequalities regarding volumes and mixed volumes, including Godberson's conjecture, near-optimal…

We establish one-to-one correspondences between maximal antichains in products of two finite linear orders and other mathematical objects, such as certain alignments of two strings, walks on a grid, lattice paths, words of two or three…

We consider linear bounded operators acting in Banach spaces with a basis, such operators can be represented by an infinite matrix. We prove that for an invertible operator there exists a sequence of invertible finite-dimensional operators…

We develop a theory of limits of finite posets in close analogy to the recent theory of graph limits. In particular, we study representations of the limits by functions of two variables on a probability space, and connections to…

We prove that there is a lattice embedded from every countable distributive lattice into the Boolean algebra of computable subsets of $\mathbb{N}$. Along the way, we discuss all relevant results about lattices, Boolean algebras and…

We establish formulas for the number of all downsets (or equivalently, of all antichains) of a finite poset P. Then, using these numbers, we determine recursively and explicitly the number of all posets having a fixed set of minimal points…

We investigate the lattice of clones that are generated by a set of functions that are induced on a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ by monomials. We study the atoms and coatoms of this lattice and investigate whether this lattice contains…

A specialization semilattice is a structure which can be embedded into $(\mathcal P(X), \cup, \sqsubseteq )$, where $X$ is a topological space, $ x \sqsubseteq y$ means $x \subseteq Ky$, for $x,y \subseteq X$, and $K$ is closure in $X$.…

Any configuration of lattice vectors gives rise to a hierarchy of higher-dimensional configurations which generalize the Lawrence construction in geometric combinatorics. We prove finiteness results for the Markov bases, Graver bases and…

We introduce several new constructions of finite posets with the number of linear extensions given by generalized continued fractions. We apply our results to the problem of the minimum number of elements needed for a poset with a given…

We review a few results concerning interpolation of monotone functions on infinite lattices, emphasizing the role of set-theoretic considerations. We also discuss a few open problems.

Dedekind's problem, dating back to 1897, asks for the total number $\psi(n)$ of antichains contained in the Boolean lattice $B_n$ on $n$ elements. We study Dedekind's problem using a recently developed method based on the cluster expansion…

We define a natural lattice structure on all subsets of a finite root system that extends the weak order on the elements of the corresponding Coxeter group. For crystallographic root systems, we show that the subposet of this lattice…

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…

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…
