Let $mathrm{G}$ be a subgroup of the symmetric group $mathfrak S(U)$ of all permutations of a countable set $U$. Let $overline{mathrm{G}}$ be the topological closure of $mathrm{G}$ in the function topology on $U^U$. We initiate the study of the poset $overline{mathrm{G}}[U]:={f[U]mid fin overline{mathrm{G}}}$ of images of the functions in $overline{mathrm{G}}$, being ordered under inclusion. This set $overline{mathrm{G}}[U]$ of subsets of the set $U$ will be called the emph{poset of copies for} the group $mathrm{G}$. A denomination being justified by the fact that for every subgroup $mathrm{G}$ of the symmetric group $mathfrak S(U)$ there exists a homogeneous relational structure $R$ on $U$ such that $overline G$ is the set of embeddings of the homogeneous structure $R$ into itself and $overline{mathrm{G}}[U]$ is the set of copies of $R$ in $R$ and that the set of bijections $overline Gcap mathfrak S(U)$ of $U$ to $U$ forms the group of automorphisms of $mathrm{R}$.
The maximum size, $La(n,P)$, of a family of subsets of $[n]={1,2,...,n}$ without containing a copy of $P$ as a subposet, has been intensively studied. Let $P$ be a graded poset. We say that a family $mathcal{F}$ of subsets of $[n]={1,2,...,n}$ cont
Let $B_n$ be the poset generated by the subsets of $[n]$ with the inclusion as relation and let $P$ be a finite poset. We want to embed $P$ into $B_n$ as many times as possible such that the subsets in different copies are incomparable. The maximum n
The distinguishing number of a graph $G$ is the smallest positive integer $r$ such that $G$ has a labeling of its vertices with $r$ labels for which there is no non-trivial automorphism of $G$ preserving these labels. Albertson and Collins computed t
If $G$ is a free product of finite groups, let $Sigma Aut_1(G)$ denote all (necessarily symmetric) automorphisms of $G$ that do not permute factors in the free product. We show that a McCullough-Miller [D. McCullough and A. Miller, {em Symmetric Auto
We introduce an extension, indexed by a partially ordered set P and cardinal numbers k,l, denoted by (k,l)-->P, of the classical relation (k,n,l)--> r in infinite combinatorics. By definition, (k,n,l)--> r holds, if every map from the n-element subse
