Graded Poset
In mathematics, in the branch of combinatorics, a graded poset is a partially-ordered set (poset) ''P'' equipped with a rank function ''ρ'' from ''P'' to the set N of all natural numbers. ''ρ'' must satisfy the following two properties: * The rank function is compatible with the ordering, meaning that for all ''x'' and ''y'' in the order, if ''x'' < ''y'' then ''ρ''(''x'') < ''ρ''(''y''), and * The rank is consistent with the of the ordering, meaning that for all ''x'' and ''y'', if ''y'' covers ''x'' then ''ρ''(''y'') = ''ρ''(''x'') + 1. The value of the rank function for an element of the poset is called its rank. Sometimes a graded poset is called a ranked poset but that phrase has other meanings; see |

Group (mathematics)
In mathematics, a group is a Set (mathematics), set and an Binary operation, operation that combines any two Element (mathematics), elements of the set to produce a third element of the set, in such a way that the operation is Associative property, associative, an identity element exists and every element has an Inverse element, inverse. These three axioms hold for Number#Main classification, number systems and many other mathematical structures. For example, the integers together with the addition operation form a group. The concept of a group and the axioms that define it were elaborated for handling, in a unified way, essential structural properties of very different mathematical entities such as numbers, geometric shapes and polynomial roots. Because the concept of groups is ubiquitous in numerous areas both within and outside mathematics, some authors consider it as a central organizing principle of contemporary mathematics. In geometry groups arise naturally in the study of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Young's Lattice
In mathematics, Young's lattice is a lattice that is formed by all integer partitions. It is named after Alfred Young, who, in a series of papers ''On quantitative substitutional analysis,'' developed the representation theory of the symmetric group. In Young's theory, the objects now called Young diagrams and the partial order on them played a key, even decisive, role. Young's lattice prominently figures in algebraic combinatorics, forming the simplest example of a differential poset in the sense of . It is also closely connected with the crystal bases for affine Lie algebras. Definition Young's lattice is a lattice (and hence also a partially ordered set) ''Y'' formed by all integer partitions ordered by inclusion of their Young diagrams (or Ferrers diagrams). Significance The traditional application of Young's lattice is to the description of the irreducible representations of symmetric groups S''n'' for all ''n'', together with their branching properties, in characteris ...

Lower Set
In mathematics, an upper set (also called an upward closed set, an upset, or an isotone set in ''X'') of a partially ordered set (X, \leq) is a subset S \subseteq X with the following property: if ''s'' is in ''S'' and if ''x'' in ''X'' is larger than ''s'' (that is, if s \leq x), then ''x'' is in ''S''. In words, this means that any ''x'' element of ''X'' that is \,\geq\, to some element of ''S'' is necessarily also an element of ''S''. The term lower set (also called a downward closed set, down set, decreasing set, initial segment, or semi-ideal) is defined similarly as being a subset ''S'' of ''X'' with the property that any element ''x'' of ''X'' that is \,\leq\, to some element of ''S'' is necessarily also an element of ''S''. Definition Let (X, \leq) be a preordered set. An in X (also called an , an , or an set) is a subset U \subseteq X that is "closed under going up", in the sense that :for all u \in U and all x \in X, if u \leq x then x \in U. The dual notion is a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
