This article studies the poset of simple permutations with respect to the pattern involvement. We specify results on critically indecomposable posets obtained by Schmerl and Trotter to simple permutations and prove that if $\sigma, \pi$ are…

Stirling permutations are parking functions, and we investigate two parking function statistics in the context of these objects: lucky cars and displacement. Among our results, we consider two extreme cases: extremely lucky Stirling…

Any permutation has a disjoint cycle decomposition and concept generates an equivalence class on the symmetry group called the cycle-type. The main focus of this work is on permutations of restricted cycle-types, with particular emphasis on…

Given an integer g, g > 1, an integer w, -1 < w <g - 1, and a set of g distinct numbers, c_1, ..., c_g, we present a conjectured identity for Stirling numbers of the first kind. We have proven all the equalities in case g < 7; and for the…

In this paper, we consider the degenerate poly-Bernoulli polynomials and present new and explicit formulas for computing them in terms of the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials and Stirling numbers of the second kind.

We begin with the observation that the signed generalized Stirling polynomials $P_k(m,x)$, which occur in a generalization of Malmsten's integral, reduce to the falling factorials when $k=m$. The structure of these generalized Stirling…

We introduce the notion of crossings and nestings of a permutation. We compute the generating function of permutations with a fixed number of weak exceedances, crossings and nestings. We link alignments and permutation patterns to these…

We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…

Drawing on a problem posed by Hertzsprung in 1887, we say that a given permutation $\pi\in\mathcal{S}_n$ contains the Hertzsprung pattern $\sigma\in\mathcal{S}_k$ if there is factor $\pi(d+1)\pi(d+2)\cdots\pi(d+k)$ of $\pi$ such that…

Given sets X and Y of positive integers and a permutation sigma = sigma_1, sigma_2, ..., sigma_n in S_n, an X,Y-descent of sigma is a descent pair sigma_i > sigma_{i+1} whose "top" sigma_i is in X and whose "bottom" sigma_{i+1} is in Y. We…

Any permutation in the finite symmetric group can be written as a product of simple transpositions $s_i = (i~i+1)$. For a fixed permutation $\sigma \in \mathfrak{S}_n$ the products of minimal length are called reduced decompositions or…

A general theory of permutation orbifolds is developed for arbitrary twist groups. Explicit expressions for the number of primaries, the partition function, the genus one characters, the matrix elements of modular transformations and for…

We introduce a new sequence of unsigned degenerate Stirling numbers of the first kind. Following the work of Adell-Lekuona, who represented unsigned Stirling numbers of the first kind as multiples of the expectations of specific random…

Using Reiner's definition of Stirling numbers of the second kind in types $B$ and $D$, we generalize two well-known identities concerning the classical Stirling numbers of the second kind. The first identity relates them with Eulerian…

In this paper, we first present combinatorial proofs of a kind of expansions of the Eulerian polynomials of types A and B, and then we introduce Stirling permutations of the second kind. In particular, we count Stirling permutations of the…

Exponentiating the hypergeometric series gives a recursion relation for integer sequences which are generalizations of conventional Bell numbers. The corresponding associated Stirling numbers of the second kind are also generated and…

We show that the probability that two permutations of $n$ letters have the same number of cycles is \[\sim \frac{1}{2\sqrt{\pi\log{n}}}.\]

Finding distributions of permutation statistics over pattern-avoiding classes of permutations attracted much attention in the literature. In particular, Bukata et al. found distributions of ascents and descents on permutations avoiding any…

In their study of cyclic pattern containment, Domagalski et al. conjecture differential equations for the generating functions of circular permutations avoiding consecutive patterns of length 3. In this note, we prove and significantly…

Motivated by a conjecture of Savage and Visontai about the equidistribution of the descent statistic on signed permutations of the multiset $\{1,1,2,2,\ldots,n,n\}$ and the ascent statistic on $(1,4,3,8,\ldots,2n-1,4n)$-inversion sequences,…
