We study a class of algebras associated with linear spaces and its relations with polymatroids and integral posets, i.e. posets supporting homogeneous ASL. We prove that the base ring of a transversal polymatroid is Koszul and describe a new class of integral posets. As a corollary we obtain that every Veronese subring of a polynomial ring is an ASL.

Two partially ordered monoids S and T are called Morita equivalent if the categories of right S-posets and right T -posets are Pos-equivalent as categories enriched over the category Pos of posets. We give a description of Pos-prodense biposets and prove Morita theorems I, II, and III for partially ordered monoids.

We show that the well known homotopy complementation formula of Björner andWalker admits several closely related generalizations on different classes of topological posets (lattices). The utility of this technique is demonstrated on some classes of topological posets including the Grassmannian and configuration posets, G̃n(R) and expn(X) which were introduced and studied by V. Vassiliev. Among o...

It has been known for 30 years that posets with bounded height and with cover graphs of bounded maximum degree have bounded dimension. Recently, Streib and Trotter proved that dimension is bounded for posets with bounded height and planar cover graphs, and Joret et al. proved that dimension is bounded for posets with bounded height and with cover graphs of bounded tree-width. In this paper, it ...

In this paper we give convex-ear decompositions for the order complexes of several classes of posets, namely supersolvable lattices with non-zero Möbius functions and rank-selected subposets of such lattices, rank-selected geometric lattices, and rank-selected face posets of shellable complexes which do not include the top rank. These decompositions give us many new inequalities for the h-vecto...

The dimension of a partially ordered set P is an extensively studied parameter. Small dimension allows succinct encoding. Indeed if P has dimension d, then to know whether x < y in P it is enough to check whether x < y in each of the d linear extensions of a witnessing realizer. Focusing on the encoding aspect Nešetřil and Pudlák defined the boolean dimension so that P has boolean dimension at ...

Let P be a finite poset. We consider the hypergraph H(P ) whose vertices are the elements of P and whose edges are the maximal intervals of P . It is known that H(P ) has the König and dual König properties for the class of series-parallel posets. Here we introduce a new class which contains series-parallel posets and for which the dual König property is satisfied. For the class of N-free poset...

If a posets lacks joins of directed subsets, one can pass to its ideal completion. But doing this means also changing the setting: The universal property of ideal completion of posets suggests that it should be regarded as a functor from the category of posets with monotone maps to the category of dcpos with Scott-continuous functions as morphisms. The same applies for the quantitative version ...

The posets of dimension 2 are those posets whose minimal realizations have two elements, that is, which may be obtained as the intersection of two of their linear extensions. Gallai's decomposition of a poset allows for a simple formula to count the number of the distinct minimal realizations of the posets of dimension 2. As an easy consequence, the characterization of M. El-Zahar and of N.W. S...

in this paper we study the notions of cogenerator and subdirectlyirreducible in the category of s-poset. first we give somenecessary and sufficient conditions for a cogenerator $s$-posets.then we see that under some conditions, regular injectivityimplies generator and cogenerator. recalling birkhoff'srepresentation theorem for algebra, we study subdirectlyirreducible s-posets and give this theo...
