Answering a question of Donald Knuth, we find the bivariate exponential generating function for "up-up-or-down-down'' permutations of odd length according to their last entry. An up-up-or-down-down permutation is a permutation $a_1a_2\cdots…
We present a novel and unifying framework for constructing spectral approximations to fractional integral operators. These spectral approximations are based on transplanted Chebyshev polynomials, which are obtained by composing Chebyshev…
A particular case of degenerate Clebsch-Gordan coefficient can be expressed with three binomial coefficients. Such a formula, which may be obtained using the standard ladder operator procedure, can also be derived from the Racah-Shimpuku…
This survey paper describes two geometric representations of the permutation group using the tools of toric topology. These actions are extremely useful for computational problems in Schubert calculus. The (torus) equivariant cohomology of…

In this paper, we find distribution of descents over $(n-3)$- and $(n-4)$-stack-sortable permutations in terms of Eulerian polynomials. Our results generalize the enumeration results by Claesson, Dukes, and Steingr\'{\i}msson on $(n-3)$-…
We introduce new natural generalizations of the classical descent and inversion statistics for permutations, called width-$k$ descents and width-$k$ inversions. These variations induce generalizations of the excedance and major statistics,…
A mixture of two or more count distributions has become deeply embedded in the analysis of excess counts, often relative to the stationary (equilibrium) distributions of birth-death processes such as the geometric, Poisson, Poisson-Lindley…
We prove an identity about partitions involving new combinatorial coefficients. The proof given is using a generating function. As an application we obtain the explicit expression of two shifted symmetric functions, related with Jack…
A permutation statistic $\operatorname{st}$ is said to be shuffle-compatible if the distribution of $\operatorname{st}$ over the set of shuffles of two disjoint permutations $\pi$ and $\sigma$ depends only on $\operatorname{st}\pi$,…
In this paper we generalize and specialize generating functions for classical orthogonal polynomials, namely Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev and Legendre polynomials. We derive a generalization of the generating function for Gegenbauer…
We present a formula for a generalisation of the Eulerian polynomial, namely the generating polynomial of the joint distribution of major index and descent statistic over the set of signed multiset permutations. It has a description in…

The action of a finite reflection group (type A) on its set of roots is understood as a permutation representation or group action. We show that this representation is an induced representation from a certain kind of parabolic subgroup.…
An earlier work of the author's showed that it was possible to adapt the Alekseev-Meinrenken Chern-Weil proof of the Duflo isomorphism to obtain a completely combinatorial proof of the Wheeling isomorphism. That work depended on a certain…
We use generating function techniques developed by Givental, Th\'eret and ourselves to deduce a proof in $\mathbb{C}\text{P}^d$ of the homological generalization of Franks theorem due to Shelukhin. This result proves in particular the…

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…
