Abstract: We study two partial orders on [x1,...,xn], the free abelian monoid on x1,...,xn. These partial orders, which we call the ``strongly stable and the ``stable partial order, are defined by the property that their filters are precisely the strongly stable and the stable monoid ideals. These ideals arise in the study of generic initial ideals.


In the development of ``poset theory as well as elsewhere it is quite important to have available for consideration well-studied families of such posets whose detailed properties are thoroughly understood; even more so when these families can be nicely related to well-known or at least interesting different structures via some comprehensible relationship beyond that of implied existence. Using this as a criterion, the paper under review passes the posed test in every way. Thus, if \([x_1,\dots,x_n]_d\) is the set of all monomials of degree \(d\) in the variables \(\{x_1,\dots,x_n\}\), then \(V \subseteq [x_1,\dots, x_n]_d\) is strongly stable (Borel) if \(m\in V\Rightarrow {x_i\over x_j}m\in V\), when \(1\leq i<j\leq n\) and \(x_j|m\). If \(A_{n,d}\) is the reflexive transitive closure of the anti-symmetric binary relation \(({x_i \over x_j} m,m)\), \(m\in V\subseteq [x_1,\dots,x_n]_d\), then \(V\) is strongly stable for all \(d\). Letting \(A_n\) be the reflexive transitive closure of the union of the divisibility partial order \(D\) and the \(A_{n,d}\) for all \(d\) produce the right poset, which has the Borel monoid ideals as filters. From a detailed study of the \(A_{n,d}\) and the \(A_n\) a variety of results, including counts and recursive formulas upon which then counts are based, is obtained to provide very useful additions to the literature.
