In this paper, we study properties and patterns on permutations of multisets whose multivariate generating functions are symmetric. We interpret this phenomenon through the lens of group actions and define such a property or pattern as…
A permutation whose any prefix has no more descents than ascents is called a ballot permutation. In this paper, we present a decomposition of ballot permutations that enables us to construct a bijection between ballot permutations and odd…
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…
We consider avoidance of permutation patterns with designated gap sizes between pairs of consecutive letters. We call the patterns having such constraints distant patterns (DPs) and we show their relation to other pattern notions…
With this work we aim to show how Mathematica can be a useful tool to investigate properties of combinatorial structures. Specifically, we will face enumeration problems on independent subsets of powers of paths and cycles, trying to…
Continuous reducibilities are a proven tool in computable analysis, and have applications in other fields such as constructive mathematics or reverse mathematics. We study the order-theoretic properties of several variants of the two most…
Bivariate generating functions for various subsets of the class of permutations containing no descending sequence of length three or more are determined. The notion of absolute indecomposability of a permutation is introduced, and used in…
We study dualities between classes of relational topological structures, given by Hom-functors. We show that there exists a 2-element structure with infinitely many relations, which reconstructs all other structures generated by a 2-element…
We disclose a new class of patterns, called patched patterns, in arrays of non-locally coupled excitable units with attractive and repulsive interactions. Self-organization process involves formation of two types of patches, majority and…
We establish a bijection from the set of all permutations (of a given length) that avoid a pattern $q$ and a context-sensitive language.
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…
A bijection $\Phi$ is presented between plane bipolar orientations with prescribed numbers of vertices and faces, and non-intersecting triples of upright lattice paths with prescribed extremities. This yields a combinatorial proof of the…
In this paper, we prove that theta correspondence preserves unitarity under certain restrictions.
Tableau sequences of bounded height have been central to the analysis of k-noncrossing set partitions and matchings. We show here that familes of sequences that end with a row shape are particularly compelling and lead to some interesting…
Questions on class cardinality comparisons are quite tricky to answer and come with its own challenges. They require some kind of reasoning since web documents and knowledge bases, indispensable sources of information, rarely store direct…
We consider the set of permutations that are sorted after two passes through a pop stack. We characterize these permutations in terms of forbidden patterns (classical and barred) and enumerate them according to the ascent statistic. Then we…
Given a regular curve in Minkowski spacetime, we describe necessary and sufficient conditions for this curve to admit a family of pairwise-disjoint crooked planes. Using this criterion, we describe crooked foliations along orbit curves of…
We generalize well-known bijections between alternative tableaux and permutations to bijections between rhombic alternative tableaux (RAT) and assembl\'ees of permutations. We show how these various bijections are connected. As a…
A notion of interpretation between arbitrary logics is introduced, and the poset Log of all logics ordered under interpretability is studied. It is shown that in Log infima of arbitrarily large sets exist, but binary suprema in general do…
We derive an exact, simple relation between the average number of clusters and the wrapping probabilities for two-dimensional percolation. The relation holds for periodic lattices of any size. It generalizes a classical result of Sykes and…
