Reconstruction of N-free ordered sets

From MaRDI portal





The deck of an ordered set is the collection of unlabelled one-point-deleted ordered subsets. Two decks are isomorphic if there is a bijection between the two decks such that each deck is isomorphic to its image. We say that a class of ordered sets \({\mathcal C}\) is reconstructible if for any two ordered sets \(P\) and \(Q\) with isomorphic decks either the sets are isomorphic or neither one is in \({\mathcal C}\). It is an open question if the class of ordered sets with at least 4 elements is reconstructible. An ordered set is N-free if it does not contain a quadruple of elements \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), \(d\) such that \(a\prec b\succ c\prec d\), where \(\prec\) stands for the covering relation in the ordered set. In the paper the author proves that the class of N-free ordered sets with at least 4 elements is reconstructible.
