Abstract: We study weight posets of weight multiplicity free (=wmf) representations $R$ of reductive Lie algebras. Specifically, we are interested in relations between $dimR$ and the number of edges in the Hasse diagram of the corresponding weight poset, $$. We compute the number of edges and upper covering polynomials for the weight posets of all wmf-representations. We also point out non-trivial isomorphisms between weight posets of different irreducible wmf-representations. Our main results concern wmf-representations associated with periodic gradings or Z-gradings of simple Lie algebras. For Z-gradings, we prove that $$, where $h$ is the Coxeter number of $mathfrakg$. For periodic gradings, we prove that $$.
