For all n > 1, the subset lattice 2” has a Dilworth partition using symmetric chains.
in 2°, the following sete form a symmetric chcin: (2,5), (2,4,5), (24,5,8} and {1,2,4,5,8}}
‘The number of partitions of an integer n into even parts is equal to the number of partitions
of n into parts, all of which have the same size,
Generating functions of the form f(x) = S%,,a,2” are only applied in combinatorics when
they are a Taylor series.
When p(A) is a polynomial in the advancement operator A and the degree of this polynomial
is d = 5.74, the solution space to the equation p(A) f(n) is a vector space whose dimension
is d(1 — 1/5)(1 1/7),
To implement Kruskal’s algorithin, it is not necessary to sort the edges by weight. One can
simply take the edges in any order and take the first one avoiding a cycle when added to those
edges already chosen.
Dijkstra’s algorithm finds shortest paths having the maximmm number of edges.
‘Weakly convergent generating operators which span Kruskal products have dimension at most
the Spemer width of hamiltonian advancements.
