Some unpublished manuscripts

• On the structure of Bruhat order, Doctoral Thesis, University of Minnesota, April 2002. Essentially all of this appears in the papers "Order Dimension, Strong Bruhat Order and Lattice Properties for Posets" and "The cd-index of Bruhat intervals" above. One important exception: the details of the order-dimension calculation for type B.
• Bases for the Flag f-Vectors of Eulerian Posets, unpublished manuscript, 2000. This manuscript includes the material in the paper "Non-negative cd-coefficients of Gorenstein* posets" as well as a summary of the various bases and basis-change formulas for flag f-vectors of Eulerian posets. I don't intend to submit it for publication, but it has been useful for me to have all this material in one place, and I include it here in the hopes that others may find it useful.
