Background – Because of the increased incidence of multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria, the use of disinfectants over antibiotics has been encouraged. However, the interactions between disinfectants and host local immunity are poorly understood. Objective – To assess the effects of chlorhexidine digluconate (Chx), with and without selected host defence ...

Down-step statistics in generalized Dyck paths [PDF]
The number of down-steps between pairs of up-steps in $k_t$-Dyck paths, a generalization of Dyck paths consisting of steps $\{(1, k), (1, -1)\}$ such that the path stays (weakly) above the line $y=-t$, is studied.

Enumeration of super-strong Wilf equivalence classes of permutations in the generalized factor order [PDF]
Super-strong Wilf equivalence classes of the symmetric group ${\mathcal S}_n$ on $n$ letters, with respect to the generalized factor order, were shown by Hadjiloucas, Michos and Savvidou (2018) to be in bijection with pyramidal sequences of consecutive ...

Further enumeration results concerning a recent equivalence of restricted inversion sequences [PDF]
Let asc and desc denote respectively the statistics recording the number of ascents or descents in a sequence having non-negative integer entries.

Proofs of Conjectures about Pattern-Avoiding Linear Extensions [PDF]
After fixing a canonical ordering (or labeling) of the elements of a finite poset, one can associate each linear extension of the poset with a permutation.

Inversion sequences avoiding 021 and another pattern of length four [PDF]
We study the enumeration of inversion sequences that avoid the pattern 021 and another pattern of length four. We determine the generating trees for all possible pattern pairs and compute the corresponding generating functions.

The permutation class Av(4213,2143) [PDF]
We determine the structure of permutations avoiding the patterns 4213 and 2143. Each such permutation consists of the skew sum of a sequence of plane trees, together with an increasing sequence of points above and an increasing sequence of points to its ...

Sensitivities and block sensitivities of elementary symmetric Boolean functions
Boolean functions have important applications in molecular regulatory networks, engineering, cryptography, information technology, and computer science. Symmetric Boolean functions have received a lot of attention in several decades.

Classical pattern distributions in $\mathcal{S}_{n}(132)$ and $\mathcal{S}_{n}(123)$ [PDF]
Classical pattern avoidance and occurrence are well studied in the symmetric group $\mathcal{S}_{n}$. In this paper, we provide explicit recurrence relations to the generating functions counting the number of classical pattern occurrence in the set of ...

Consecutive Patterns in Inversion Sequences [PDF]
An inversion sequence of length $n$ is an integer sequence $e=e_{1}e_{2}\dots e_{n}$ such that $0\leq e_{i}
