A sequence $(x_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ on the torus $\mathbb{T}$ exhibits Poissonian pair correlation if for all $s\geq0$, \begin{equation*} \lim_{N\to\infty} \frac{1}{N}\#\left\{1\leq m\neq n \leq N : |x_m-x_n| \leq \frac{s}{N}\right\} = 2s.…
An integer sequence a(n) is called a jump sequence if a(1)=1 and 1<=a(n)<n for n>=2. Such a sequence has the property that a^k(n)=a(a(...(a(n))...)) goes to 1 in finitely many steps and we call the pattern (n,a(n),a^2(n),...,a^k(n)=1) a…
The 321,hexagon-avoiding (321-hex) permutations were introduced and studied by Billey and Warrington in as a class of elements of S_n whose Kazhdan-Lusztig and Poincare polynomials and the singular loci of whose Schubert varieties have…
We develop the theory of n-stacks (or more generally Segal n-stacks which are $\infty$-stacks such that the morphisms are invertible above degree n). This is done by systematically using the theory of closed model categories (cmc). Our main…
We count the number of subsets of $\{1,2,\cdots,n\}$ under different conditions and study the sequence obtained as we let $n$ increase.
We present a bijection between non-crossing partitions of the set $[2n+1]$ into $n+1$ blocks such that no block contains two consecutive integers, and the set of sequences $\{s_{i}\}_{1}^{n}$ such that $1 \leq s_{i} \leq i$, and if…
We present a certain generalization of a recent result of M. I. Cirnu on linear recurrence relations with coefficient in progressions [2]. We provide some interesting examples related to some well-known integer sequences, such as Fibonacci…
In [S. Kitaev and J. Remmel: Classifying descents according to parity] the authors refine the well-known permutation statistic "descent" by fixing parity of (exactly) one of the descent's numbers. In this paper, we generalize the results of…
We study a sorting procedure (run-sorting) on permutations, where runs are rearranged in lexicographic order. We describe a rather surprising bijection on permutations on length $n$, with the property that it sends the set of peak-values to…
The Binary Two-Up Sequence is the lexicographically earliest sequence of distinct nonnegative integers with the property that the binary expansion of the n-th term has no 1-bits in common with any of the previous floor(n/2) terms. We show…
Sequence of positive integers $\{x_n\}_{n\geq1}$ is called similar to $\mathbb {N}$ respectively a given property $A$ if for every $n\geq1$ the numbers $x_n$ and $n$ are in the same class of equivalence respectively $A\enskip(x_n\sim n…
Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer and $I$ be a finite set of positive integers. In 1915, MacMahon proved that the number of permutations in the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ with descent set $I$ is a polynomial in $n$. We call this the…
We obtain the generating functions for partial matchings avoiding neighbor alignments and for partial matchings avoiding neighbor alignments and left nestings. We show that there is a bijection between partial matchings avoiding three…
Stirling permutations were introduced by Gessel and Stanley, who used their enumeration by the number of descents to give a combinatorial interpretation of certain polynomials related to Stirling numbers. Quasi-Stirling permutations, which…
We study the descent distribution over the set of centrosymmetric permutations that avoid the pattern of length 3. Our main tool in the most puzzling case, namely, $\tau=123$ and $n$ even, is a bijection that associates a Dyck prefix of…
The longest increasing subsequence (LIS) of a random walk has so far been studied mainly for zero-mean, symmetric step increments. We numerically investigate the LIS of biased Gaussian random walks, with unit-variance increments and…
Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) is a widely used inference method in Bayesian statistics to bypass the point-wise computation of the likelihood. In this paper we develop theoretical bounds for the distance between the statistics used…
To each sequence $(a_n)$ of positive real numbers we associate a growing sequence $(T_n)$ of continuous trees built recursively by gluing at step $n$ a segment of length $a_n$ on a uniform point of the pre-existing tree, starting from a…
Let $A_n\subseteq S_n$ denote the alternating and the symmetric groups on $1,...,n$. MacMahaon's theorem, about the equi-distribution of the length and the major indices in $S_n$, has received far reaching refinements and generalizations,…
Arrangements of pseudolines are classic objects in discrete and computational geometry. They have been studied with increasing intensity since their introduction almost 100 years ago. The study of the number $B_n$ of non-isomorphic simple…
