Preliminaries and General Notation

Abstract

We introduce the basic notation and preliminaries for Convex Geometry, partially ordered sets (posets), lattices, zero-sum sequences, and Transfer Krull Monoids, as well as the requisite asymptotic notation. A more general notion of rational sequence is introduced, where the multiplicities of terms are allowed to be non-negative rational numbers rather than integers, which will play a crucial role in later parts of Chap. 8.
