Abstract

We classify Fraïssé classes of finite posets with convex linear orderings with respect to the Ramsey property and extend the list of extremely amenable groups and universal minimal flows thanks to a theory developed by Kechris et al. (Geom Funct Anal 15:106–189, 2005). For the structures from the Schmerl list for which this technique is not applicable, we provide a direct calculation of universal minimal flows.
