Abstract
Dai Pra et al., studied two notions of monotonicity for continuous-time Markov processes on a finite partially ordered set (poset). They conjectured that monotonicity equivalence holds for a poset of W-glued diamond, and that there is no other case when it has no acyclic extension. We proved their conjecture and were able to provide a complete characterization of posets for monotonicity equivalence.
