PosetElements

The elements of a finite poset, in a linear extension — the order every other head here indexes values by.

PosetElements(poset)the elements, listed so that smaller ones come first

Domain: Incidence algebras

Details
  • The linear extension is what makes upper-triangular with ones on the diagonal, hence invertible over the integers — and therefore what makes integral
  • `DivisorLattice` elements are integers; `BooleanLattice` elements are subsets; `Chain` elements are
  • `AlgebraDimension(IncidenceAlgebra(poset))` counts the intervals: for a chain, for the Boolean lattice
