The Absolute Orders on the Coxeter Groups and are Sperner

Lawrence H. Harper, Gene B. Kim, Neal Livesay

Over 50 years ago, Rota posted the following celebrated `Research Problem': prove or disprove that the partial order of partitions on an -set (i.e., the refinement order) is Spe…

Is the Symmetric Group Sperner?

Larry H. Harper, Gene B. Kim

An antichain in a poset is a subset of in which no two elements are comparable. Sperner showed that the maximal antichain in the Boolean l…

The Edge-Isoperimetric Problem on Sierpinski Graphs: Final Resolution

L. H. Harper

This paper completes the project started in [10]; to solve the edge-isoperimetric problem on the (generalized and extended) Sierpinski graph, S(n,m). We prove that initial segments…

The edge-isorperimetric problem on Sierpinski graphs

L. H. Harper

Some families of graphs, such as the n-cubes and Sierpinski gaskets, are self-similar. In this paper we show how such recursive structure can be used systematically to prove isoper…

Can the Sierpinski graph be embedded in the Hamming graph?

Lawrence Hueston Harper

The (generalized & expanded) Sierpinski graph, S(n,m), and the Hamming graph have the same set of vertices (n-tuples from the set {0,1,...,m-1}. The edges of both are (unordered) p…

The Range of a Steiner Operation

L. H. Harper

This paper answers a fundamental question in the theory of Steiner operations (StOps) as defined and studied in the monograph, "Global Methods for Combinatorial Isoperimetric Probl…
