Concepts of dimension for convex geometries

K Knauer, WT Trotter - SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2024 - SIAM
Let be a finite set. A family of subsets of is called a convex geometry with ground set if (1);(2)
whenever; and (3) if and, there is an element such that. As a nonempty family of sets, a …

Better bounds for poset dimension and boxicity

A Scott, D Wood - Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2020 - ams.org
The dimension of a poset $ P $ is the minimum number of total orders whose intersection is
$ P $. We prove that the dimension of every poset whose comparability graph has maximum …

Sparsity and dimension

G Joret, P Micek, V Wiechert - Combinatorica, 2018 - Springer
We prove that posets of bounded height whose cover graphs belong to a fixed class with
bounded expansion have bounded dimension. Bounded expansion, introduced by Nešetřil …

On the dimension of posets with cover graphs of treewidth 2

G Joret, P Micek, WT Trotter, R Wang, V Wiechert - Order, 2017 - Springer
Abstract In 1977, Trotter and Moore proved that a poset has dimension at most 3 whenever
its cover graph is a forest, or equivalently, has treewidth at most 1. On the other hand, a well …

Nowhere dense graph classes and dimension

G Joret, P Micek, P Ossona de Mendez, V Wiechert - Combinatorica, 2019 - Springer
Nowhere dense graph classes provide one of the least restrictive notions of sparsity for
graphs. Several equivalent characterizations of nowhere dense classes have been obtained …

[HTML][HTML] Minors and dimension

B Walczak - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2017 - Elsevier
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 …

Comparing Dushnik-Miller dimension, Boolean dimension and local dimension

F Barrera-Cruz, T Prag, HC Smith, L Taylor, WT Trotter - Order, 2020 - Springer
The original notion of dimension for posets is due to Dushnik and Miller and has been
studied extensively in the literature. Quite recently, there has been considerable interest in …

Topological minors of cover graphs and dimension

P Micek, V Wiechert - Journal of Graph Theory, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
We show that posets of bounded height whose cover graphs exclude a fixed graph as a
topological minor have bounded dimension. This result was already proven by Walczak …

Boolean dimension and tree-width

S Felsner, T Mészáros, P Micek - Combinatorica, 2020 - Springer
Dimension is a key measure of complexity of partially ordered sets. Small dimension allows
succinct encoding. Indeed if P has dimension d, then to know whether x≤ y in P it is enough …

Boolean dimension and local dimension

WT Trotter, B Walczak - Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, 2017 - Elsevier
Dimension is a standard and well-studied measure of complexity of posets. Recent research
has provided many new upper bounds on the dimension for various structurally restricted …
