Surprising occurrences of order structures in mathematics
Gunnar Fløystad · Journal of Computational Dynamics · 2024
Order and symmetry are main structural principles in mathematics. We give five examples where on the face of it order is not apparent, but deeper investigations reveal that they are governed by order structures. These examples are finite topologies, associative algebras, subgroups of matrix groups, ideals in polynomial rings, and classes of bipartite graphs.
