For all finite fields of $q$ elements where $q\equiv1\pmod4$ we have constructed permutation polynomials which have order 2 as permutations, and have 3 terms, or 4 terms as polynomials. Explicit formulas for their coefficients are given in…
Multidimensional permutations, or $d$-permutations, are represented by their diagrams on $[n]^d$ such that there exists exactly one point per hyperplane $x_i$ that satisfies $x_i= j$ for $i \in [d]$ and $j \in [n]$. Bonichon and Morel…
In this paper, we confirm conjectures of Laborde-Zubieta on the enumeration of corners in tree-like tableaux and in symmetric tree-like tableaux. In the process, we also enumerate corners in (type $B$) permutation tableaux and (symmetric)…
Bivariate generating functions for various subsets of the class of permutations containing no descending sequence of length three or more are determined. The notion of absolute indecomposability of a permutation is introduced, and used in…
We consider the enumeration of pattern-avoiding involutions, focusing in particular on sets defined by avoiding a single pattern of length 4. As we demonstrate, the numerical data for these problems demonstrates some surprising behavior.…
The confluent binomial posets with the atomic function A(n) = max (1,2^(n-2)) are classified. In particular, it is shown that in general there are non-isomorphic intervals of the same length.
In this paper we establish an estimate for the rate of convergence of the Krasnosel'ski\v{\i}-Mann iteration for computing fixed points of non-expansive maps. Our main result settles the Baillon-Bruck conjecture [3] on the asymptotic…
We introduce and investigate an iterative scheme for approximating common fixed point of a family of Bregman relatively-nonexpansive mappings in real reflexive Banach spaces. We prove strong convergence theorem of the sequence generated by…
We analyze the sequence of polynomials defined by the differential-difference equation $P_{n+1}(x)=P_{n}^{\prime}(x)+x(n+1)P_{n}(x)$ asymptotically as $n\to\infty$. The polynomials $P_{n}(x)$ arise in the computation of higher derivatives…
We develop a method to construct all the indecomposable involutive set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation with a prime-power number of elements and cyclic permutation group. Moreover, we give a complete classification of the…
Breakthrough work of Bourgain, Demeter, and Guth recently established that decoupling inequalities can prove powerful results on counting integral solutions to systems of Diophantine equations. In this note we demonstrate that in…
In 1848, Hermite introduced a reduction theory for binary forms of degree $n$ which was developed more fully in the seminal 1917 treatise of Julia. This canonical method of reduction made use of a new, fundamental, but irrational…
A graceful n-permutation is a graceful labeling of an n-vertex path P_n. In this paper we improve the asymptotic lower bound on the number of such permutations from (5/3)^n to 2.37^n. This is a computer-assisted proof based on an effective…
We consider maps on genus-$g$ surfaces with $n$ (labeled) faces of prescribed even degrees. It is known since work of Norbury that, if one disallows vertices of degree one, the enumeration of such maps is related to the counting of lattice…
There are (at least) three bijections from Dyck paths to 321-avoiding permutations in the literature, due to Billey-Jockusch-Stanley, Krattenthaler, and Mansour-Deng-Du. How different are they? Denoting them B,K,M respectively, we show that…
Let $\pi_n$ be a uniformly chosen random permutation on $[n]$. The authors of [2] showed that the expected number of distinct consecutive patterns of all lengths $k\in\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in $\pi_n$ was $\frac{n^2}{2}(1-o(1))$ as $n\to\infty$,…
Let $(X,\|.\|)$ be a Banach space. Let $C$ be a nonempty, bounded, closed, and convex subset of $X$ and $T: C \rightarrow C$ be a $G$-monotone nonexpansive mapping. In this work, it is shown that the Mann iteration sequence defined by…
Solving the first nonmonotonic, longer-than-three instance of a classic enumeration problem, we obtain the generating function $H(x)$ of all 1342-avoiding permutations of length $n$ as well as an {\em exact} formula for their number…
Circular permutations on {1,2,...,n} that avoid a given pattern correspond to ordinary (linear) permutations that end with n and avoid all cyclic rotations of the pattern. Three letter patterns are all but unavoidable in circular…
We define and study a family of generalized non-intersection exponents for planar Brownian motions that is indexed by subsets of the complex plane: For each $A\subset\CC$, we define an exponent $\xi(A)$ that describes the decay of certain…
