In this article, we study a model of random permutations, which we call random standardized permutations, based on a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. This model generalizes others, such as the riffle-shuffle and the major-index-biased…
We prove limit theorems for the number of fixed points occurring in a random pattern-avoiding permutation distributed according to a one-parameter family of biased distributions. The bias parameter exponentially tilts the distribution…
We study cycle counts in permutations of $1,\dots,n$ drawn at random according to the Mallows distribution. Under this distribution, each permutation $\pi \in S_n$ is selected with probability proportional to $q^{\text{inv}(\pi)}$, where…
We study scaling limits of random permutations ("permutons") constrained by having fixed densities of a finite number of patterns. We show that the limit shapes are determined by maximizing entropy over permutons with those constraints. In…
We derive a large deviation principle for random permutations induced by probability measures of the unit square, called permutons. These permutations are called $\mu$-random permutations. We also introduce and study a new general class of…
Asymptotics of the normalizing constant is computed for a class of one parameter exponential families on permutations which includes Mallows model with Spearmans's Footrule and Spearman's Rank Correlation Statistic. The MLE, and a…
We study classical pattern counts in Mallows random permutations with parameters $(n,q_n)$, as $n\to\infty$. We focus on three different regimes for the parameter $q = q_n$. When $n^{3/2}(1-q)\to0$, we use coupling techniques to prove that…
We introduce and study a new random permutation model that generalizes the $k$-card minimum model defined by Travers and the Mallows model. We calculate the permuton limit of such a sequence of random permutations. As a corollary, we deduce…
We consider uniform random permutations of length $n$ conditioned to have no cycle longer than $n^\beta$ with $0<\beta<1$, in the limit of large $n$. Since in unconstrained uniform random permutations most of the indices are in cycles of…
We look at geometric limits of large random non-uniform permutations. We mainly consider two theories for limits of permutations: permuton limits, introduced by Hoppen, Kohayakawa, Moreira, Rath, and Sampaio to define a notion of scaling…
We investigate the asymptotic properties of permutations drawn from the Luce model, a natural probabilistic framework in which permutations are generated sequentially by sampling without replacement, with selection probabilities…
We consider uniform random permutations drawn from a family enumerated through generating trees. We develop a new general technique to establish a central limit theorem for the number of consecutive occurrences of a fixed pattern in such…
In this work we are considering the behavior of the limit shape of Young diagrams associated to random permutations on the set $\{1,\dots,n\}$ under a particular class of multiplicative measures. Our method is based on generating functions…
We prove limit theorems for the number of fixed points, descents, and inversions of iterated random-to-top shuffles in two asymptotic regimes. Our proofs are analytic, and they utilize new combinatorial decompositions that represent each…
We study the length of cycles of random permutations drawn from the Mallows distribution. Under this distribution, the probability of a permutation $\pi \in \mathbb{S}_n$ is proportional to $q^{\textrm{inv}(\pi)}$ where $0<q\le 1$ and…
One method to generate random permutations involves using Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting (GEPP) on a random matrix $A$ and storing the permutation matrix factor $P$ from the resulting GEPP factorization $PA=LU$. We are…
Understanding the metric structure of permutation families is fundamental to combinatorics and has applications in social choice theory, bioinformatics, and coding theory. We study permutation families defined by restriction…

We consider random permutation matrices following a one-parameter family of deformations of the uniform distribution, called Ewens' measures, and modifications of these matrices where the entries equal to one are replaced by i.i.d uniform…
Introduced by Mallows as a ranking model in statistics, Mallows permutation model is a class of non-uniform probability distributions on the symmetric group $S_n$. The model depends on a distance metric on $S_n$ and a scale parameter…
