The boundedness conjecture for gluing posets

About 1 year old · traced to

Let P1\mathcal P_1 and P2\mathcal P_2 be finite posets with bounded saturation number, and let P2∗P1\mathcal P_2*\mathcal P_1 denote their gluing, obtained by placing every element of P1\mathcal P_1 below every element of P2\mathcal P_2. Let sat⁡∗(n,P)\operatorname{sat}^*(n,\mathcal P) denote the induced saturation number. Gluing-boundedness conjecture. The glued poset P2∗P1\mathcal P_2*\mathcal P_1 also has bounded saturation number. This is a special case of the preceding unboundedness conjecture and is presented as a desired extension of the paper's boundedness theorem to arbitrary posets.
