Abstract Let L=u 1 , u 2 , ..., u k be a linear extension of a poset P. Each pair (u i , u i+1 ) of unrelated elements in P is called a jump of L. The jump number problem is to find L with the minimum number of jumps. The problem is known to be NP-hard even on bipartite posets. Here we present a linear time algorithm for it in 2-dimensional bipartite posets. We also discuss briefly some weighted cases.
