(Min, max)-equivalence of posets and nonnegative Tits forms

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We study the relationship between the (min, max)-equivalence of posets and properties of their quadratic Tits form related to nonnegative definiteness. In particular, we prove that the Tits form of a poset S is nonnegative definite if and only if the Tits form of any poset (min, max)-equivalent to S is weakly nonnegative.
