Hyperplane Arrangements and Diagonal Harmonics [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2011
In 2003, Haglund's bounce statistic gave the first combinatorial interpretation of the q,t-Catalan numbers and the Hilbert series of diagonal harmonics. In this paper we propose a new combinatorial interpretation in terms of the affine Weyl group of type

The Number of Prime Parking Functions

open access: yesThe Mathematical Intelligencer, 2023
A parking function of length $n$ is prime if we obtain a parking function of length $n-1$ by deleting one 1 from it. In this note we give a new direct proof that the number of prime parking functions of length $n$ is $(n-1)^{n-1}$. This proof leads to a new interpretation, in close terms to the definition of parking function.

Interval and $\ell$-interval Rational Parking Functions [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science
Interval parking functions are a generalization of parking functions in which cars have an interval preference for their parking. We generalize this definition to parking functions with $n$ cars and $m\geq n$ parking spots, which we call interval ...

Two special cases of the Rational Shuffle Conjecture [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2014
The Classical Shuffle Conjecture of Haglund et al. (2005) has a symmetric function side and a combinatorial side. The combinatorial side $q,t$-enumerates parking functions in the $n ×n$ lattice.

Transport Automation in Urban Mobility: A Case Study of an Autonomous Parking System

open access: yesVehicles, 2022
Parking road vehicles is one of the most tedious and challenging tasks a human driver performs. Despite the low speeds involved, parking manoeuvres are among the main causes of minor and sometimes major traffic accidents, especially in urban areas where ...

Counting Defective Parking Functions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2008
Suppose that $m$ drivers each choose a preferred parking space in a linear car park with $n$ spaces. Each driver goes to the chosen space and parks there if it is free, and otherwise takes the first available space with a larger number (if any). If all drivers park successfully, the sequence of choices is called a parking function.

Probabilizing parking functions

open access: yesAdvances in Applied Mathematics, 2017
We explore the link between combinatorics and probability generated by the question "What does a random parking function look like?" This gives rise to novel probabilistic interpretations of some elegant, known generating functions. It leads to new combinatorics: how many parking functions begin with $i$?

Extending the parking space [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
The action of the symmetric group $S_n$ on the set $\mathrm{Park}_n$ of parking functions of size $n$ has received a great deal of attention in algebraic combinatorics.

An explicit formula for ndinv, a new statistic for two-shuffle parking functions [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
In a recent paper, Duane, Garsia, and Zabrocki introduced a new statistic, "ndinv'', on a family of parking functions. The definition was guided by a recursion satisfied by the polynomial $\langle\Delta_{h_m}C_p1C_p2...C_{pk}1,e_n\rangle$, for $\Delta_ ...
