Contiguity orders
Résumé
This paper is devoted to the study of contiguity orders i.e. orders having a linear extension extension L such that all upper (or lower) cover sets are intervals of L. This new class is a strict generalization of both interval orders and N-free orders and is linearly recognizable. It is proved that computing the number of contiguity extensions is #P-complete and that the dimension of height one contiguity orders is polynomially tractable. Moreover the membership is a comparability invariant on bi-contiguity orders. Finally for strong-contiguity orders the calculation of the dimension is NP-complete.
