Abstract:

In 1978, Dhar suggested a model of a lattice gas whose states are partial orders. In this context he raised the question of determining the number of partial orders with a fixed number of comparable pairs. Dhar conjectured that in order to find a good approximation to this number, it should suffice to enumerate families of layer posets. In this paper we prove this conjecture and thereby prepare the ground for a complete answer to the question. 1
