Abstract
By introducing the notion of relative derangements of type , also called signed relative derangements, which are defined in terms of signed permutations, we obtain a type analogue of the well-known relation between relative derangements and the classical derangements. While this fact can be proved by using the principle of inclusion and exclusion, we present a combinatorial interpretation with the aid of the intermediate structure of signed skew derangements.
