Abstract
First, let us give some general remarks which will divert us a little:
For each natural integer n, the set Δ ([n], [1]) will be totally ordered by saying that f≧g if and only if f (i)≦g(i) for each i∈[n]; moreover, we can identify the ordered set Δ ([n], [1]) with [n+1] under the map f → card f−1(0). We define thus a functor [n] → Δ ([n], [1]) from Δ to Δ°, which will be noted II, and which can be described as follows:
