Avoiding maximal parabolic subgroups of S_k [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We find an explicit expression for the generating function of the number of permutations in S_n avoiding a subgroup of S_k generated by all but one simple transpositions.

On the problem of Molluzzo for the modulus 4

open access: yes, 2012
We solve the currently smallest open case in the 1976 problem of Molluzzo on $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$, namely the case $m=4$. This amounts to constructing, for all positive integer $n$ congruent to $0$ or $7 \bmod{8}$, a sequence of integers modulo $4 ...

Restricted ascent sequences and Catalan numbers

open access: yes, 2014
Ascent sequences are those consisting of non-negative integers in which the size of each letter is restricted by the number of ascents preceding it and have been shown to be equinumerous with the (2+2)-free posets of the same size.

Cyclic to Random Transposition Shuffles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Consider a permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ as a deck of cards numbered from 1 to $n$ and laid out in a row, where $\sigma_j$ denotes the number of the card that is in the $j$-th position from the left.\rm\ We define two cyclic to random transposition ...

Two Vignettes On Full Rook Placements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Using bijections between pattern-avoiding permutations and certain full rook placements on Ferrers boards, we give short proofs of two enumerative results.

and [PDF]

open access: yes
. We study the descent distribution over the set of centrosymmetric permutations that avoid a pattern of length 3. In the most puzzling case, namely, τ = 123 and n even, our main tool is a bijection that associates a Dyck pre x of length 2n to every ...

Identities on the k-ary Lyndon words related to a family of zeta functions

open access: yes, 2016
The main aim of this paper is to investigate and introduce relations between the numbers of k-ary Lyndon words and unified zeta-type functions which was defined by Ozden et al [15, p. 2785].

Grid classes and the Fibonacci dichotomy for restricted permutations

open access: yes, 2006
We introduce and characterise grid classes, which are natural generalisations of other well-studied permutation classes. This characterisation allows us to give a new, short proof of the Fibonacci dichotomy: the number of permutations of length n in a ...

The Eulerian numbers on restricted centrosymmetric permutations

open access: yes, 2009
We study the descent distribution over the set of centrosymmetric permutations that avoid the pattern of length 3. Our main tool in the most puzzling case, namely, $\tau=123$ and $n$ even, is a bijection that associates a Dyck prefix of length $2n$ to ...
