Subgroups of the symmetric group S-n act on C-n (the n-fold product C x ... x C of a chain C) by permuting coordinates, and induce automorphisms of the power C-n. For certain families of subgroups of S-n, the quotients defined by these groups can be shown to have symmetric chain decompositions (SCDs). These SCDs allow us to enlarge the collection of subgroups G of S-n for which the quotient 2(n)/G on the Boolean lattice 2(n) is a symmetric chain order (SCO). The methods are also used to provide an elementary proof that quotients of powers of SCOs by cyclic groups are SCOs. |
