β¦ Synopsis
Let B(j,k; n) be the ordered set obtained by ordering the j element and k element subsets of an n element set by inclusion. We review results and proof techniques concerning the dimension dim(j,k;n) of B (j,k;n) for various ranges of the arguments j, k, and n.

We form the random poset P P n, p by including each subset of n s 1, . . . , n with probability p and ordering the subsets by inclusion. We investigate the length of the Ε½ . longest chain contained in P P n, p . For p G ern we obtain the limit distribution of this random variable. For smaller p we g
Suppose we toss an independent coin with probability of success p for each subset of Β½n ΒΌ f1; . . . ; ng; and form the random hypergraph PΓ°n; pΓ by taking as hyperedges the subsets with successful coin tosses. We investigate the cardinality of the largest Sperner family contained in PΓ°n; pΓ: We obta
The dimension of a partially ordered set P is the smallest integer n (if it exists) such that the partial order on P is the intersection of n linear orders. It is shown that if L is a lattice of dimension two containing a sublattice isomorphic to the modular Iatiice Mz,+,, then every generating set
A cutset in the poset 2 [n] , of subsets of [1, ..., n] ordered by inclusion, is a subset of 2 [n] that intersects every maximal chain. Let 0 : 1 be a real number. Is it possible to find a cutset in 2 [n] that, for each 0 i n, contains at most : ( n i ) subsets of size i ? Let :(n) be the greatest l
