2004

pre-print
The posets P for which A^**=A for all antichains are characterized. 2. The blocker A^* of a symmetric antichain in the partition lattice is characterized. 3. ...
The blocker A^* of an antichain A in a finite poset P is the set of elements minimal with the property of having with each member of A a common predecessor. The following is done: 1. ...
Symmetric blockers in partition lattices Recall that the partition lattice Π n consists of all set partitions of [n] = {1, . . . , n} ordered by refinement. ...

Partitioning Boolean lattices into antichains
2003
Discrete Mathematics
Let f(n) be the smallest integer t such that a poset obtained from a Boolean lattice with n atoms by deleting both the largest and the smallest elements can be partitioned into t antichains of the same ...
In this paper, it is shown that f(n) 6 b n 2 =log n. This is an improvement of the best previously known upper bound for f(n). ...
In this article, we consider a variation of a dual problem, i.e. the problem of partitioning of a Boolean lattice into antichains of equal size. ...

Partitions of large Boolean lattices
1994
Discrete Mathematics
Definef(n) to be the minimum number k such that there is a partition of 2" into k antichains of the same size except for at most one antichain of a smaller size. ...
In the paper we examine the asymptotic behavior of f(n) and we show that c1 n < f(n) < c2n2 for some constants c1 and c2 and n sufficiently large. ...
In this paper we deal with a variation of the dual problem: (Q) Can, for n sufficiently large given m, the ordered set 2" be partitioned into antichains of size m except for at most m-1 elements which ...

A splitting property of maximal antichains
1995
Combinatorica
In any dense poset P (e.g. in the Boolean lattice) every maximal antichain S may be partitioned into disjoint subsets S 1 and S 2 , such that the union of the downset of S 1 with the upset of S 2 yields ...
To find a similar splitting of maximal antichains in posets is NP-hard in general. ...
For convenience, we sometimes say that the antichain S is partitionable when S satisfies the splitting property in the poset P. ...

Consider the poset n of partitions of an n-element set, ordered by re nement. The sizes of the various ranks within this poset are the Stirling numbers of the second kind. Let a = 1 2 ? e log(2)=4. ...

4-Connected Triangulations on Few Lines
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
The same holds for all subgraphs of such triangulations. The proof is based on a corresponding result for diagrams of planar lattices which makes use of orthogonal chain and antichain families. ...
We show that 4-connected plane triangulations can be redrawn such that edges are represented by straight segments and the vertices are covered by a set of at most √(2n) lines each of them horizontal or ...
Work on this problem began at the 2018 Bertinoro Workshop of Graph Drawing. I thank the organizers of the event for making this possible. ...

Book Review: Combinatorics of finite sets

In 1928, Sperner determined the maximum-sized antichains in the subset lattice. ...
Concerning the Sperner property for special posets, Anderson outlines Shearer's proof of Canfield's result that for large n the lattice of partitions of an n-set is not Sperner, contrary to a conjecture ...

The seminal result in the theory is the result of Sperner (1928) that gives the maximum size of an antichain in the Boolean lattice B, (consisting of all subsets of (1,---,m) ordered by inclusion). ...
While the Sperner property for ranked posets is treated in detail, the book does not describe any of the counterexamples to the long-standing conjecture of Rota (that the partition lattice is Sperner, ...

Minimum sized fibres in distributive lattices
2001
Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society
We find a lower bound on the function / (£>), the minimum fibre size in the distributive lattice D, in terms of the size of D. ...
This fact depends upon being able to split every maximal antichain of this class of distributive lattices into two parts so that the lattice is the union of the upset of one part and the downset of the ...
To prove Theorem 1, we play off the dimension of a distributive lattice against its length and invoke a description of partitions induced by maximal antichains in a certain class of distributive lattices ...

Enumeration of extensions of the cycle matroid of a complete graph
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We prove that the number of single element extensions of M(K_n+1) is 2^n n/2(1+o(1)). This is done using a characterization of extensions as "linear subclasses". ...
Since ⌊ n 2 ⌋ + 1 = ⌈ n+1 2 ⌉, the result follows. Antichains in the Boolean lattice are well studied and each intersecting antichain is also an antichain. ...
The Boolean lattice is used as the auxiliary graph in this paper, so known results about enumerating antichains in a Boolean lattice are used instead of a direct application of the container method. ...

On the widths of finite distributive lattices
1987
Discrete Mathematics
In words this says that as one considers ~ increasingly large distributive lattices, the maximum sized antichain contains small proportion of the elements. ...
The following conjecture of U Faigle and B Sands is proved: For every number R > 0 there exists a number n(R) such that if 2 is a finite distributive lattice whose width w(Z) (size of the largest antichain ...
