In this paper we describe the range of values that can be taken by the fractional weak discrepancy of a poset subject to forbidden r+ s configurations, where r+s = 4. Generalizing previous work on weak discrepancy in [5, 12, 13], the notion of fractional weak discrepancy wdF (P ) of a poset P = (V,≺) was introduced in [7] as the minimum nonnegative k for which there exists a function f : V → R ...
