For each prime power q, we determine all polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form f(X) := aX^{3q}+bX^{2q+1}+cX^{q+2}+dX^3 which induce complete mappings of F_{q^2}, in the sense that each of the functions x --> f(x) and x --> f(x)+x permutes…
We classify the homogeneous finite-dimensional permutation structures, i.e., homogeneous structures in a language of finitely many linear orders, giving a nearly complete answer to a question of Cameron, and confirming the classification…
In this paper we give a bijection between the class of permutations that can be drawn on an X-shape and a certain set of permutations that appears in [Knuth] in connection to sorting algorithms. A natural generalization of this set leads us…
Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted high interest in recent years. However, only a few of them have been exhibited. This article studies a class of permutation rational functions constructed using trace maps on…
Our work shows forms of descent, in the fppf, h and \'{e}tale topologies, for strong generation of the bounded derived category of a noncommutative coherent algebra over a scheme. Even for (commutative) schemes this yields new perspectives.…
A permutation is said to be cycle-alternating if it has no cycle double rises, cycle double falls or fixed points; thus each index $i$ is either a cycle valley ($\sigma^{-1}(i)>i<\sigma(i)$) or a cycle peak ($\sigma^{-1}(i)<i>\sigma(i)$).…
Feit and Fine derived a generating function for the number of ordered pairs of commuting n by n matrices over the finite field F_q. This has been reproved and studied by Bryan and Morrison from the viewpoint of motivic Donaldson-Thomas…
In this note we give a rational uniformisation equation of the discriminant loci associated to a non-degenerate affine complete intersection variety. To show this formula we establish a relation of the fibre-integral with the hypergeometric…
For any right-angled Coxeter group $\Gamma$ on $k$ generators, we construct proper actions of $\Gamma$ on $\mathrm{O}(p,q+1)$ by right and left multiplication, and on the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{o}(p,q+1)$ by affine transformations, for some…
We investigate the structure of the two permutation classes defined by the sets of forbidden patterns {1234,2341} and {1243,2314}. By considering how the Hasse graphs of permutations in these classes can be built from a sequence of rooted…
We prove that it is decidable if a finitely based permutation class contains infinitely many simple permutations, and establish an unavoidable substructure result for simple permutations: every sufficiently long simple permutation contains…
We enumerate factorizations of a Coxeter element in a well generated complex reflection group into arbitrary factors, keeping track of the fixed space dimension of each factor. In the infinite families of generalized permutations, our…
We present a general expression for any term of the Magnus series as an iterated integral of a linear combination of independent right-nested commutators with given coefficients. The relation with the Malvenuto--Reutenauer Hopf algebra of…
We study probability distributions of convergent random series of a special structure, called perpetuities. By giving a new argument, we prove that such distributions are of pure type: degenerate, absolutely continuous, or continuously…
We describe an approach, via Malle's permutation $\Psi$ on the set of irreducible characters $\text{Irr}(W)$, that gives a uniform derivation of the Chapuy-Stump formula for the enumeration of reflection factorizations of the Coxeter…
In this paper, we connect two types of representations of a permutation $\sigma$ of the finite field $\F_q$. One type is algebraic, in which the permutation is represented as the composition of degree-one polynomials and $k$ copies of…
For a given permutation or set partition there is a natural way to assign a genus. Counting all permutations or partitions of a fixed genus according to cycle lengths or block sizes, respectively, is the main content of this article. After…
In this paper, a construction of complete permutation polynomials over finite fields of even characteristic proposed by Tu et al. recently is generalized in a recursive manner. Besides, several classes of complete permutation polynomials…
We study the topological group structure (coming from loop multiplication) on an affine Grassmannian. In particular, we study finite-dimensional subvarieties that generate the homology ring. We show that there is a canonical family of…
We show that very simple continued fractions can be obtained for the ordinary generating functions enumerating permutations or D-permutations with a large number of independent statistics, when each cycle is given a weight $-1$. The proof…
