The number of peaks of a random permutation is known to be asymptotically normal. We give a new proof of this and prove a central limit theorem for the distribution of peaks in a fixed conjugacy class of the symmetric group. Our technique…
A permutoid is a set of partial permutations that contains the identity and is such that partial compositions, when defined, have at most one extension in the set. In 2004 Peter Cameron conjectured that there can exist no algorithm that…
This paper introduces a new combinatorial framework for modeling the growth of binary trees through a discrete evolution process that incorporates a growing rule and an extinction rule. Building upon the theory of increasingly labeled…
The list-decodable code has been an active topic in theoretical computer science.There are general results about the list-decodability to the Johnson radius and the list-decoding capacity theorem. In this paper we show that rates,…
We introduce a new combinatorial structure: the superselector. We show that superselectors subsume several important combinatorial structures used in the past few years to solve problems in group testing, compressed sensing, multi-channel…
We study the percolation properties of the growing clusters model. In this model, a number of seeds placed on random locations on a lattice are allowed to grow with a constant velocity to form clusters. When two or more clusters eventually…
We say that two permutations $[n]\to [n]$ intersect if they map some element $x$ to the same element $y$. A matching in a family of permutations is a collection of pairwise disjoint permutations. In this paper, we study families of…
We investigated two-dimensional brittle fragmentation with a flat impact experimentally, focusing on the low impact energy region near the fragmentation-critical point. We found that the universality class of fragmentation transition…
The Brownian separable permuton is a random probability measure on the unit square, which was introduced by Bassino, Bouvel, F\'eray, Gerin, Pierrot (2016) as the scaling limit of the diagram of the uniform separable permutation as size…
We consider large uniform random trees where we fix for each vertex its degree and height. We prove, under natural conditions of convergence for the profile, that those trees properly renormalized converge. To this end, we study the paths…
We consider a family of growth models defined using conformal maps in which the local growth rate is determined by $|\Phi_n'|^{-\eta}$, where $\Phi_n$ is the aggregate map for $n$ particles. We establish a scaling limit result in which…
We introduce a solvable model of randomly growing systems consisting of many independent subunits. Scaling relations and growth rate distributions in the limit of infinite subunits are analysed theoretically. Various types of scaling…
Baxter permutations, plane bipolar orientations, and a specific family of walks in the non-negative quadrant are well-known to be related to each other through several bijections. We introduce a further new family of discrete objects,…
We prove that a uniform, rooted unordered binary tree with $n$ vertices has the Brownian continuum random tree as its scaling limit for the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. The limit is thus, up to a constant factor, the same as that of uniform…
The goal of property testing is to quickly distinguish between objects which satisfy a property and objects that are $\epsilon$-far from satisfying the property. There are now several general results in this area which show that natural…
Suppose we choose a permutation $\pi$ uniformly at random from $S_n$. Let $\mathsf{runsort}(\pi)$ be the permutation obtained by sorting the ascending runs of $\pi$ into lexicographic order. Alexandersson and Nabawanda recently asked if the…
This paper investigates the connection between discrete and continuous models describing prion proliferation. The scaling parameters are interpreted on biological grounds and we establish rigorous convergence statements. We also discuss,…
We study decomposable combinatorial labeled structures in the exp-log class, specifically, two examples of type a=1 and two examples of type a=1/2. Our approach is to establish how well existing theory matches experimental data. For…
We study a random fragmentation process and its associated random tree. The process has earlier been studied by Dean and Majumdar (J. Phys. A: Math. Gen., vol. 35, L501--L507), who found a phase transition: the number of fragmentations is…
For a finite field of odd number of elements we construct families of permutation binomials and permutation trinomials with one fixed-point (namely zero) and remaining elements being permuted as disjoint cycles of same length. Binomials and…
