Pinnacle sets of signed permutations

Combinatorics 2023-03-28 v2

Abstract

Pinnacle sets record the values of the local maxima for a given family of permutations. They were introduced by Davis-Nelson-Petersen-Tenner as a dual concept to that of peaks, previously defined by Billey-Burdzy-Sagan. In recent years pinnacles and admissible pinnacles sets for the type AA symmetric group have been widely studied. In this article we define the pinnacle set of signed permutations of types BB and DD. We give a closed formula for the number of type BB/DD admissible pinnacle sets and answer several other related enumerative questions.
