%0 Journal Article %T The M£¿bius function of partitions with restricted block size %A Richard Ehrenborg %A Margaret Readdy %J Mathematics %D 2010 %I arXiv %X We study filters in the partition lattice formed by restricting to partitions by type. The M\"obius function is determined in terms of the easier-to-compute descent set statistics on permutations and the M\"obius function of filters in the lattice of integer compositions. When the underlying integer partition is a knapsack partition, the M\"obius function on integer compositions is determined by a topological argument. In this proof the permutahedron makes a cameo appearance. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1009.3976v1
