AbbreviationSet partition#✓fully proved

A set partition of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) is a finite collection of nonempty, pairwise disjoint subsets of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\), called blocks, whose union is \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\).

DefinitionCrossing in a set partition#✓fully proved

A set partition \(P\) of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) has a crossing if there are \(a < b < c < d\) in \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) such that \(a\) and \(c\) lie in the same block of \(P\), \(b\) and \(d\) lie in the same block of \(P\), and these two blocks are different.

DefinitionBlock of a noncrossing partition#✓fully proved

For a noncrossing partition \(P\) of \(\{0, \dots, n-1\}\) and a point \(a \in \{0, \dots, n-1\}\), the block of \(P\) at \(a\) is the block of the underlying set partition that contains \(a\).
