We define a statistic on the graph of commutation classes of a permutation of the symmetric group which is used to show that these graphs are equipped with a ranked poset structure, with a minimum and maximum. This characterization also…
We discuss both simple and more subtle connections between the numbers of permutations and full cycles with some restrictions,in particular, between the numbers of permutations and full cycles with prescribed up-down structure.
We establish upper and lower bounds on the maximal number of steps needed to transform a cyclic permutation to the canonical cyclic permutation using conjugation by adjacent transpositions, and on the diameter of the underlying Schreier…
We consider the distribution of cycles in two models of random permutations, that are related to one another. In the first model, cycles receive a weight that depends on their length. The second model deals with permutations of points in…
We investigate the typical cycle lengths, the total number of cycles, and the number of finite cycles in random permutations whose probability involves cycle weights. Typical cycle lengths and total number of cycles depend strongly on the…
Bounds for the diameter and for the expansion of long-range percolation clusters on the cycle $\Z / N\Z$ are given.
We introduce a new natural notion of convergence for permutations at any specified scale, in terms of the density of patterns of restricted width. In this setting we prove that limits may be chosen independently at a countably infinite…
The study of the graph diameter of polytopes is a classical open problem in polyhedral geometry and the theory of linear optimization. In this paper we continue the investigation initiated in [4] by introducing a vast hierarchy of…
We derive upper and lower bounds on the sum of distances of a spherical code of size $N$ in $n$ dimensions when $N\sim n^\alpha, 0<\alpha\le 2.$ The bounds are derived by specializing recent general, universal bounds on energy of spherical…
The spectral diameter of a symplectic ball is shown to be equal to its capacity; this result upgrades the known bound by a factor of two and yields a simple formula for the spectral diameter of a symplectic ellipsoid. We also study the…
A weighted game or a threshold function in general admits different weighted representations even if the sum of non-negative weights is fixed to one. Here we study bounds for the diameter of the corresponding weight polytope. It turns out…
We count the number of occurrences of restricted patterns of length 3 in permutations with respect to length and the number of cycles. The main tool is a bijection between permutations in standard cycle form and weighted Motzkin paths.
We calculate the diameters of commuting graphs of matrices over the binary Boolean semiring, the tropical semiring and an arbitrary nonentire commutative semiring. We also find the lower bound for the diameter of the commuting graph of the…
The orbital diameter of a primitive permutation group is the maximal diameter of its orbital graphs. There has been a lot of interest in bounds for the orbital diameter. In this paper we provide explicit bounds on the diameters of groups of…
Let $f$ be a permutation from $\mathbb{N}_0$ onto $\mathbb{N}_0$. Let $x\in\mathbb{N}_0$ and consider a (finite or infinite) sequence $s= (x,f(x),f^2(x),\cdots)$. We call $s$ a permutation sequence. Let $D$ be the set of elements of $s$. If…
We establish mathematical bounds on the chain, ABCD and immittance matrices of a multiconductor transmission line, based on the Telegrapher's equation. Closed-form expressions for those matrices are also presented. Existing results that…
We study the distribution of cycle lengths in models of nonuniform random permutations with cycle weights. We identify several regimes. Depending on the weights, the length of typical cycles grows like the total number $n$ of elements, or a…
The circular peak set of a permutation $\sigma$ is the set $\{\sigma(i)\mid \sigma(i-1)<\sigma(i)>\sigma(i+1)\}$. In this paper, we focus on the enumeration problems for permutations by circular peak sets. Let $cp_n(S)$ denote the number of…
Permutations are usually enumerated by size, but new results can be found by enumerating them by inversions instead, in which case one must restrict one's attention to indecomposable permutations. In the style of the seminal paper by Simion…
Problem 8.1 in Astaiza et. al. asks about the relationship between the cycle decomposition of a permutation $\sigma$ and that of its symmetric tensor power $\sigma ^{\odot k}$. In this paper, we investigate this question and give formulas…
