Descent polynomials for labeled tree

Combinatorics 2023-05-02 v1

Abstract

Motivated by the properties of the descent polynomials, which enumerate permutations of SnS_n with a fixed descent set, we define descent polynomials for labeled rooted trees. We give recursive and explicit formulas for these polynomials and show when known properties of the descent polynomials carry over to the setting of trees.
