Let $H$ be a permutation group on a set $\Lambda$, which is permutationally isomorphic to a finite alternating or symmetric group $A_n$ or $S_n$ acting on the $k$-element subsets of points from $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, for some arbitrary but fixed…

We consider a stack sorting algorithm where only the appropriate output values are popped from the stack and then any remaining entries in the stack are run through the stack in reverse order. We identify the basis for the $2$-reverse pass…

We focus on the permutation polynomials of the form $L(X)+\Tr_{m}^{3m}(X)^{s}$ over $\F_{q^3}$, where $\F_q$ is the finite field with $q=p^m$ elements, $p$ is a prime number, $m$ is a positive integer, $\Tr_{m}^{3m}$ is the relative trace…
