We construct a family of $S_n$ modules indexed by $c\in\{1,\dots,n\}$ with the property that upon restriction to $S_{n-1}$ they recover the classical parking function representation of Haiman. The construction of these modules relies on an…
The aim of this work is to extend to a general $S_m\times S_n$-module context the Grossman-Bizley paradigm that allows the enumeration of Dyck paths in a $m\times n$-rectangle. We obtain an explicit formula for the the "bi-Frobenius"…
Berget and Rhoades asked whether the permutation representation obtained by the action of $S_{n-1}$ on parking functions of length $n-1$ can be extended to a permutation action of $S_{n}$. We answer this question in the affirmative. We…
The symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ and the partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ centralize one another in their actions on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the $n$-dimensional permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of…
We test the umbral methods introduced by Rota and Taylor within the theory of representation of symmetric group. We define a simple bijection between the set of all parking functions of length $n$ and the set of all noncrossing partitions…
An \emph{$(r,k)$-parking function} of length $n$ may be defined as a sequence $(a_1,\dots,a_n)$ of positive integers whose increasing rearrangement $b_1\leq\cdots\leq b_n$ satisfies $b_i\leq k+(i-1)r$. The case $r=k=1$ corresponds to…
Suppose that $m$ drivers each choose a preferred parking space in a linear car park with $n$ spots. In order, each driver goes to their chosen spot and parks there if possible, and otherwise takes the next available spot if it exists. If…
Let $W$ be an irreducible finite complex reflection group acting on a complex vector space $V$. For a positive integer $k$, we consider a class function $\varphi_k$ given by $\varphi_k(w) = k^{\dim V^w}$ for $w \in W$, where $V^w$ is the…
Stanley recently introduced the shifted parking function symmetric function $SH_n$, which is the shiftification of Haiman's parking function symmetric function $PF_n$. The function $SH_n$ lives in the subalgebra of symmetric functions…
Armstrong, Reiner, and Rhoades defined for all Weyl groups $W$ a natural representation of $W$ called the $W$-parking space. The type $B$ parking space is the representation $\mathbb{C}[(\mathbb{Z}/(2n+1)\mathbb{Z})^n]$ of the $n$th signed…
In this paper we deal with the action of the symmetric group on the cohomology of the configuration space $C_n(d)$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. This topic has been studied by several authors (see the introduction). On the cohomology…
Parking functions are a widely studied class of combinatorial objects, with connections to several branches of mathematics. On the algebraic side, parking functions can be identified with the standard monomials of $M_n$, a certain monomial…
We develop a circular-street argument, in the style of Pollak, to obtain a new proof that there are $C_n = \frac{1}{n+1}\binom{2n}{n}$ weakly increasing parking functions of length $n \geq 1$, where $C_n$ is the $n$th Catalan number.
In this paper, let $\mathcal{P}_{n,n+k;\leq n+k}$ (resp. $\mathcal{P}_{n;\leq s}$) denote the set of parking functions $\alpha=(a_1,...,a_n)$ of length $n$ with $n+k$ (respe. $n$)parking spaces satisfying $1\leq a_i\leq n+k$ (resp. $1\leq…
We introduce several associative algebras and series of vector spaces associated to these algebras. Using lattice vertex operators, we obtain dimension and character formulae for these spaces. In particular, we a series of representations…
A parking function on $[n]$ creates a permutation in $S_n$ via the order in which the $n$ cars appear in the $n$ parking spaces. Placing the uniform probability measure on the set of parking functions on $[n]$ induces a probability measure…
For $\mathbf{b}=(b_1,\dots,b_n)\in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}^n$, a $\mathbf{b}$-parking function is defined to be a sequence $(\beta_1,\dots,\beta_n)$ of positive integers whose nondecreasing rearrangement $\beta'_1\leq \beta'_2\leq \cdots \leq…
We study the action of $S_n$ on the set of break divisors on complete multigraphs $K_{n}^m$. We provide an alternative characterization for these divisors, by virtue of which we show that orbits of this action are enumerated by the…
We study the actions of a Lie group $G$ by birationally extendible automorphisms on a domain $D\subset C^n$. For a large class of such domains defined by polynomial inequalities, all automorphisms are of this type. In the cases 1) $G$ has…
In a recent paper J. Haglund showed that a certain symmetric function expresion enumerates by t^{area} q^{dinv} of the parking functions whose diagonal word is in the shuffle of 12...j and j+1...j+n with k of the cars j+1,...,j+n in the…
