A poset or partially ordered set is a set endowed with a partial order, meaning a binary relation $\leq$ which is reflexive ($x \leq x$ for all $x$), antisymmetric ($x\leq y$ and $y\leq x$ implies $x=y$), and transitive ($x\leq y$ and $y\leq z$ implies $x \leq z$).

I am looking for a name of a certain structure, which is a generalization of poset that admits non-binary comparisons. Let $P$ be a set equipped with operations, for $n\geq2$, $$ C_n: P^n \to \{True, …

What property of ranked poset ensures that it is determined by its vertex-facet incidences?

For a convex polytope, its face poset is combinatorially determined by vertex-facet incidences. Now suppose we have an arbitrary finite poset that is ranked, so I can still speak of vertices and facet …
