Allow us to say that a limited incomplete request (A, v) is tree-like if, for each a
Question:
Allow us to say that a limited incomplete request (A, v) is tree-like if, for each a ∈ A, the arrangement (of
its ancestors) {x ∈ A | x v a ∧ x 6= a} either is unfilled or has a novel maximal
component. Equally, pictorially, this holds when the Hasse chart of A comprises
of at least one trees.
State which of the accompanying relations on the whole numbers {1, 2, . . . , 10} are tree-like
halfway orders and give a one-sentence avocation.
(a) R where xRy ⇔ x = y
(b) R where xRy ⇔ x 6 y (here 6 is the typical requesting on numbers)
(c) R where xRy ⇔ x partitions precisely into y
(d) R where xRy ⇔ x = y or x is the best prime variable of y

To count the number C(n) of tree-like incomplete orders of n components, accept
A = {1, 2, . . . , n} and afterward place each and every component I into a Hasse outline
beginning from 1 and with the end goal that no later component j > I is put to such an extent that j v I.
Show that, gave n > 1, we have C(n) = f(n, C(n − 1)) and give the capacity
f(n, m). Give a base case and accordingly tackle the repeat for C(n). [12 marks]

Let A be a set and R a connection on A; likewise compose Rk
for the standard k-crease piece
of R, for example R1 = R, Rk+1 = R ◦ Rk
. Let t(R) be the littlest connection which is
transitive and has R ⊆ t(R), comparatively let u(R) = S∞
