โฆ Synopsis
It IS proved that If (Y, <) IS a poset with no Infinite chain and k IS a positive integer, then there exist a partition of .Jp into disjoint chains C, and disjoint antichains A,, A,. , A,., such that each chain C, meets min (k, IC, I) antichams A,. We make a 'dual' conjecture, for which the case k = 1 is: if (a, <) is a poset with no infinite antichain.
then there exist a partition of d into antichains A, and a chain C meetmg all A,. This comecture is proved when the maximal size of an antichain in d is 2.

Linial conjectured that Greene-Kleitman's theorem can be extended to general digraphs. We prove a stronger conjecture of Berge for digraphs having k-optimal path partitions consisting of 'long' paths. The same method yields known results for acyclic digraphs, and extensions of various theorems of Gr
## Abstract In 1971, inspired by the work of Lazard and Govorov for modules over a ring, Stenstrรถm proved that the strongly flat right acts __A__ ~__S__~ over a monoid __S__ (that is, the acts that are directed colimits of finitely generated free acts) are those for which the functor __A__ ~__S__~
## Abstract Greene's Theorem states that the maximum cardinality of an optimal __k__โpath in a poset is equal to the minimum __k__โnorm of a __k__โoptimal coloring. This result was extended to all acyclic digraphs, and is conjectured to hold for general digraphs. We prove the result for general dig
