Counting Linear Extensions of Posets with Determinants of Hook Lengths

Abstract. We introduce a class of posets, called mobile posets, which includes both ribbon posets and d-complete posets, whose number of linear extensions is given by a determinant of a matrix where entries are products of hook lengths. We also give q-analogs of this determinantal formula in terms of the inversion statistic.
