Combinatorics Of RNA Secondary Structures

open access: yes, 1996
Secondary structures of polynucleotides can be view as a certain class of planar vertex-labeled graphs. We construct recursion formulae enumerating various sub-classes of these graphs as well as certain structural elements (sub-graphs).

Some zero-sum constants with weights

open access: yes, 2008
. For an abelian group G, the Davenport constant D(G) is defined to be the smallest natural number k such that any sequence of k elements in G has a non-empty subsequence whose sum is zero (the identity element).

Three enumeration formulas of standard young tableaux of truncated shapes

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper we consider the enumeration of three kinds of standard Young tableaux (SYT) of truncated shapes by use of the method of multiple integrals.

Permutations Which Are the Union of an Increasing and a Decreasing Subsequence

open access: yes, 1998
It is shown that there are # 2n n # - # n-1 m=0 2 n-m-1 # 2m m # permutations which are the union of an increasing sequence and a decreasing sequence.

The Bricklayer Problem And The Strong Cycle Lemma

open access: yes, 1998
this paper, we solve a counting problem about building stacks of such blocks, which we call bricks. We have a linear base of length m on which we can place bricks. The bricks sitting directly on the base can start at any integer position, as long as they

The Pills problem revisited

open access: yes, 2004
We revisit the pills problem proposed by Knuth and McCarthy. In a bottle there are m large pills and n small pills. The large pill is equivalent to two small pills. Every day a person chooses a pill at random.
