It was shown recently by the authors that, for any n, there is equality between the distributions of certain triplets of statistics on nxn alternating sign matrices (ASMs) and descending plane partitions (DPPs) with each part at most n. The…

For a positive integer n and a subset S of [n-1], the descent polytope DP_S is the set of points x_1, ..., x_n in the n-dimensional unit cube [0,1]^n such that x_i >= x_{i+1} for i in S and x_i <= x_{i+1} otherwise. First, we express the…

We derive some new signed Mahonian polynomials over the complex reflection group $G(r,1,n)=C_r\wr\mathfrak{S}_n$, where the "sign" is taken to be any of the $2r$ $1$-dim characters and the "Mahonian" statistics are the $\mathsf{lmaj}$…

This paper develops techniques to study the number of descents in random permutations via martingales. We relax an assumption in the Berry-Esseen theorem of Bolthausen (1982) to extend the theorem's scope to martingale differences of…

This paper is concerned with multivariate refinements of the gamma-positivity of Eulerian polynomials by using the succession and fixed point statistics. Properties of the enumerative polynomials for permutations, signed permutations and…

We consider various properties and manifestations of some sign-alternating univariate polynomials borne of right-triangular integer arrays related to certain generalizations of the Fibonacci sequence. Using a theory of the root geometry of…

The Eulerian polynomials enumerate permutations according to their number of descents. We initiate the study of descent polynomials over Cayley permutations, which we call Caylerian polynomials. Some classical results are generalized by…

We prove that every sufficiently long simple permutation contains two long almost disjoint simple subsequences. This result has applications to the enumeration of restricted permutations. For example, it immediately implies a result of Bona…

Given an $n$-vertex digraph $D$ and a labeling $\sigma:V(D)\to [n]$, we say that an arc $u\to v$ of $D$ is a descent of $\sigma$ if $\sigma(u)>\sigma(v)$. Foata and Zeilberger introduced a generating function $A_D(t)$ for labelings of $D$…

We give rational expressions for the subresultants of n+1 generic polynomials f_1,..., f_{n+1} in n variables as a function of the coordinates of the common roots of f_1,..., f_n and their evaluation in f_{n+1}. We present a simple…

For univariate polynomials over arbitrary field the degree gives an upper bound on the number of roots (factor theorem) and as a related result for any finite point-set one can construct a polynomial of degree equal to the cardinality…

It is known that, when $n$ is even, the number of permutations of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ all of whose cycles have odd length equals the number of those all of whose cycles have even length. Adin, Heged\H{u}s and Roichman recently found a…

Simsun permutations, Andr\'e I permutations and Andr\'e II permutations are three combinatorial models for Euler numbers. It's known that the descent statistic is equidistributed over the set of Andr\'e I permutations and the set of simsun…

We study the sum of the $r$th powers of the descent set statistic and how many small prime factors occur in these numbers. Our results depend upon the base $p$ expansion of $n$ and $r$.

We extend the reciprocity method of Jones and Remmel to study generating functions of the form $$\sum_{n \geq 0} \frac{t^n}{n!} \sum_{\sigma \in \mathcal{NM}_n(\Gamma)}x^{\mathrm{LRmin}(\sigma)}y^{1+\mathrm{des}(\sigma)}$$ where $\Gamma$ is…

In a previous paper, we studied an overpartition analogue of Gaussian polynomials as the generating function for overpartitions fitting inside an $m \times n$ rectangle. Here, we add one more parameter counting the number of overlined…

The $q$-multinomial coefficient, a classical object in enumerative combinatorics, counts permutations of multisets weighted by the number of inversions, with a single deformation parameter $q$. We introduce the twisted multinomial…

Fibonacci polynomials are generalizations of Fibonacci numbers, so it is natural to consider polynomial versions of the various results for Fibonacci numbers. According to Hong, Pongsriiam, Bulawa, and Lee, the generating function of the…

Chatteerjee and Diaconis have recently shown the asymptotic normality for the joint distribution of the number of descents and inverse descents in a random permutation. A noteworthy point of their results is that the asymptotic variance of…

In this paper, we study the relationship among left peaks, interior peaks and up-down runs of simsun permutations. Properties of the generating polynomials, including the recurrence relation, generating function and real-rootedness are…
