How many groups of size at most n are there? What is the asymptotic growth rate? And what of rings, fields, graphs, partial orders, etc.?
Question. How many (isomorphism types of) finite groups of size at most n are there? What is the asymptotic growth rate? And the same question for rings,
fields, graphs, partial orders, etc.

is there a ‘nice’ lattice on the set of unlabelled graphs with $n$ vertices?
It is easy to endow the set of vertex-labelled graphs with $n$ vertices with a lattice structure: take the union and the intersection of the edge set as meet and join respectively.
However, I wonder ...

Is it possible to decide in polynomial time if a poset is a subposet of another which is given ?
I am reading some theory on partial orders and I wonder something which perhaps has a simple answer : Given two partial orders $G_1,G_2$ (by their hasse diagrams), is it possible to know in polynomial-...

Is a simple graph the "sum" of a partial order and its dual?
A "$n$-order matrix" $T\in M_n(\mathbb F_2)$ is a matrix such that there exists a partial ordered relation $\leq_T\subset [1,n]^2$ such that :
$T_{ij}=1\Leftrightarrow i\leq_T j$
(where $T_{ij}$ is ...

Directed Hypercube Minimal Cuts
If $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ for some $n\in\mathbb{N}$, then the hypercube digraph of dimension $n$, denoted $H_n$, is the graph whose set of vertices is the power-set $\wp([n])$ where two vertices $U,...

Is a simple graph matrix the sum of a "shiftordered" matrix and its transposed matrix
This is the generalization of a question Is a simple graph the "sum" of a partial order and its dual?
Nik Weaver found a counterexample in a very nice, complete (and instantaneous!) answer,...
