Deviation of a poset descending chain of elements "a" > "a" >... all but a finite number of the posets of elements between "a" and "a" have deviation less than α. The deviation (if it exists) is the minimum value of α for which this is true. Not every poset has a deviation. The following conditions on a poset are equivalent: The poset of positive integers has deviation 0: every descending chain is finite, so the defining condition for deviation is vacuously true. However, its opposite poset has deviation 1. Let "k" be an algebraically closed field and consider the poset of ideals of
