Let be the lexicographic sum of finite ordered sets over a finite ordered set . For some we can give a formula for the jump number of in terms of the jump numbers of and , that is, , where denotes the jump number of an ordered set . We first show that , where denotes the width of an ordered set . Consequently, if is a Dilworth ordered set, that is, , then the formula holds. We also show that it holds again if is bipartite. Finally, we prove that the lexicographic...
