In this paper we present a topological framework for studying signed permutations and their reversal distance. As a result we can give an alternative approach and interpretation of the Hannenhalli-Pevzner formula for the reversal distance…
The second author had previously obtained explicit generating functions for moments of characteristic polynomials of permutation matrices (n points). In this paper, we generalize many aspects of this situation. We introduce random shifts of…
We investigate dynamical properties of the set of permutations of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with restricted movement, i.e., permutations $\pi $ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that $\pi (\mathbf{n})-\mathbf{n}$ lies, for every $\mathbf{n}\in \mathbb{Z}^d$, in…
Consider a permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ as a deck of cards numbered from 1 to $n$ and laid out in a row, where $\sigma_j$ denotes the number of the card that is in the $j$-th position from the left.\rm\ We define two cyclic to random…
Consider a permutation p to be any finite list of distinct positive integers. A statistic is a function St whose domain is all permutations. Let S(p,q) be the set of shuffles of two disjoint permutations p and q. We say that St is shuffle…
We study joint distributions of cycles and patterns in permutations written in standard cycle form. We explore both classical and generalised patterns of length 2 and 3. Many extensions of classical theory are achieved; bivariate generating…
Partially ordered patterns (POPs) generalize the notion of classical patterns studied in the literature in the context of permutations, words, compositions and partitions. In this paper, we give a number of general, and specific enumerative…
We show that the sets of periods of multidimensional shifts of finite type (SFTs) are exactly the sets of integers of the complexity class $\NE$. We also show that the functions counting their number are the functions of #E. We also give…
We present the theorem which determines, by a permutation, the cardinal ordering of fixed points for any orbit of a period doubling cascade. The inverse permutation generates the orbit and the symbolic sequence of the orbit is obtained as a…
Recently, Babson and Steingrimsson have introduced generalised permutation patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. We consider pattern avoidance for such patterns, and…
In this paper, we deal with reversing and extended symmetries of shifts generated by bijective substitutions. We provide equivalent conditions for a permutation on the alphabet to generate a reversing/extended symmetry, and algorithms how…
Inspired by a recent novel work of Good and Meddaugh, we establish fundamental connections between shadowing, finite order shifts, and ultrametric complete spaces. We develop a theory of shifts of finite type for infinite alphabets. We call…
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…
In this paper, we investigate the structure of the most general kind of substitution shifts, including non-minimal ones, and allowing erasing morphisms. We prove the decidability of many properties of these morphisms with respect to the…
The cycle polynomial of a finite permutation group $G$ is the generating function for the number of elements of $G$ with a given number of cycles: \[F_G(x) = \sum_{g\in G}x^{c(g)},\] where $c(g)$ is the number of cycles of $g$ on $\Omega$.…
Traditionally a tiling is defined with a finite number of finite forbidden patterns. We can generalize this notion considering any set of patterns. Generalized tilings defined in this way can be studied with a dynamical point of view,…
Recursive permutations whose cycles are the classes of a decidable equivalence relation are studied; the set of these permutations is called $\mathrm{Perm}$, the group of all recursive permutations $\mathcal{G}$. Multiple equivalent…
Consider a game of permutation wordle in which a player attempts to guess a secret permutation of length $n$ in as few guesses as possible. In each round, the guessing player is told which indices of their guessed permutation are correct.…
Using a notation of corner between edges when graph has a fixed rotation, i.e. cyclical order of edges around vertices, we define combinatorial objects - combinatorial maps as pairs of permutations, one for vertices and one for faces.…
In this article, we study the behaviour of discrete one-dimensional dynamical systems associated to functions on finite sets. We formalise the global orbit pattern formed by all the periodic orbits (gop) as the ordered set of periods when…
