Abstract
In discrete mathematics, there are partial orders on permutations relating how much they are disordered. One of these orders, the weak order, has some additional structure called a lattice. Our work presents conjectures and results from combining the weak order with other orders to form larger posets with the aim that these posets exhibit properties of a lattice. Our ideas include the use of alternative representations such as binary matrices.
