We introduce a new class of permutations, called web permutations. Using these permutations, we provide a combinatorial interpretation for entries of the transition matrix between the Specht and $\operatorname {SL}_2$ -web bases of the irreducible

Tilings of benzels via the abacus bijection [PDF]
Propp recently introduced regions in the hexagonal grid called benzels and stated several enumerative conjectures about the tilings of benzels using two types of prototiles called stones and bones.

Background– Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) may cause suppurative otitis externa with severe inflammation and ulceration in dogs. Multidrug resistance is commonly reported for this organism, creating a difficult therapeutic challenge. Objective– The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of a gel containing 0.5 µg/mL of ...

Determinantal generating functions of colored spanning forests
The color type of a spanning forest of a graph with colored edges is defined and, subsequently, it is proved that the generating function of such spanning forests is obtained as the formal expansion of a certain determinant. An analogous determinantal expansion yields the generating function of all spanning forests of a given color type that contain a ...

MacMahon’s statistics on higher-dimensional partitions
We study some combinatorial properties of higher-dimensional partitions which generalize plane partitions. We present a natural bijection between d-dimensional partitions and d-dimensional arrays of nonnegative integers.

Counting occurrences of 132 in an even permutation
We study the generating function for the number of even (or odd) permutations on n letters containing exactly r ≥ 0 occurrences of a 132 pattern. It is shown that finding this function for a given r amounts to a routine check of all permutations in 𝔖2r.

The homogenized Linial arrangement and Genocchi numbers [PDF]
We study the intersection lattice of a hyperplane arrangement recently introduced by Hetyei who showed that the number of regions of the arrangement is a median Genocchi number.

First hitting times of simple random walks on graphs with congestion points
We derive the explicit formulas of the probability generating functions of the first hitting times of simple random walks on graphs with congestion points using group representations.

Descent c-Wilf Equivalence [PDF]
Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group. For any $\sigma \in S_n$, we let $\mathrm{des}(\sigma)$ denote the number of descents of $\sigma$, $\mathrm{inv}(\sigma)$ denote the number of inversions of $\sigma$, and $\mathrm{LRmin}(\sigma)$ denote the number of

Combinatorics of geometrically distributed random variables: new q‐tangent and q‐secant numbers
Up‐down permutations are counted by tangent (respectively, secant) numbers. Considering words instead, where the letters are produced by independent geometric distributions, there are several ways of introducing this concept; in the limit they all coincide with the classical version. In this way, we get some new q‐tangent and q‐secant functions.
