## Abstract I introduce an effective enumeration of all effective enumerations of classes of r. e. sets and define with this the index set __IE__ of injectively enumerable classes. It is easy to see that this set is ∑~5~ in the Arithmetical Hierarchy and I describe a proof for the ∑~5~‐hardness of

✦ Synopsis
We develop methods for coding with first-order formulas into the partial order E of enumerable sets under inclusion. First we use them to reprove and generalize the (unpublished) result of the first author that the elementary theory of E has the same computational complexity as the theory of the natural numbers. Relativized versions of the coding methods show that the p.o. of 7 0 p and 7 0 q sets are not elementarily equivalent for natural numbers p{q. As a further application, definability of the class of quasimaximal sets in E is obtained. On the other side, we prove theorems limiting coding and definability in E, thereby establishing a sharp contrast between E and other structures occurring in computability theory.

The closed cone of flag vectors of Eulerian partially ordered sets is studied. A new family of linear inequalities valid for Eulerian flag vectors is given. Half-Eulerian posets are defined. Certain limit posets of Billera and Hetyei are half-Eulerian; they give rise to extreme rays of the cone for
