A \emph{linear extension} of a partial order \(\preceq\) over items \(A = \{ 1, 2, \ldots, n \}\) is a permutation \(\sigma\) such that for all \(i < j\) in \(A\), it holds that \(\neg(\sigma(j) \preceq \sigma(i))\). Consider the problem of…
Consider a string of $n$ positions, i.e. a discrete string of length $n$. Units of length $k$ are placed at random on this string in such a way that they do not overlap, and as often as possible, i.e. until all spacings between neighboring…
We study additive properties of consecutive prime numbers and the primality of the sums they generate. For a given prime number $p_n$, we consider the sums \[ S_k(p_n) = p_n + p_{n+1} + \cdots + p_{n+k-1}, \] where $k \ge 3$ is an odd…
A classical result of Erd\H{o}s, Lov\'asz and Spencer from the late 1970s asserts that the dimension of the feasible region of densities of graphs with at most k vertices in large graphs is equal to the number of non-trivial connected…
A result of Rosenthal says that for every $q>1$ and $n \in \mathbb{N}$ there is $N \in \mathbb{N}$ such that every sequence of $N$ distinct positive numbers contains, after a suitable translation and possible multiplication by $-1$, a…
Permutons, which are probability measures on the unit square $[0, 1]^2$ with uniform marginals, are the natural scaling limits for sequences of (random) permutations. We introduce a $d$-dimensional generalization of these measures for all…
We prove some general results about the asymptotics of the distribution of the number of cycles of given length of a random permutation whose distribution is invariant under conjugation. These results were first established to be applied in…
Let $A(\ell,n,k)$ denote the number of $\ell$-tuples of commuting permutations of $n$ elements whose permutation action results in exactly $k$ orbits or connected components. We provide a new proof of an explicit formula for $A(\ell,n,k)$…
Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers and let $S_{n,A}$ be the set of all permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$ with cycle lengths belonging to $A$. For $A(n)=A\cap [n]$, the limit $\rho=\lim_{n\to\infty}\mid A(n)\mid/n$ (if it esists) is…
Assuming a $q$-variant of the prime $k$-tuple conjecture uniformly, we compute mixed moments of the number of primes in disjoint short intervals and progressions, respectively. This involves estimating the mean of singular series along…
There is a deep connection between permutations and trees. Certain sub-structures of permutations, called sub-permutations, bijectively map to sub-trees of binary increasing trees. This opens a powerful tool set to study enumerative and…
Let $\alpha(n)$ denote the number of perfect square permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$. The conjecture $\alpha(2n+1) = (2n+1) \alpha(2n)$, provided by Stanley[4], was proved by Blum[1] using a generating function. This paper presents…
Denote by r(n) the length of a shortest integer sequence on a circle containing all permutations of the set {1,2,...,n} as subsequences. Hansraj Gupta conjectured in 1981 that r(n) <= n^2/2. In this paper we confirm the conjecture for the…
Consider a finite sequence of permutations of the elements 1,...,n, with the property that each element changes its position by at most 1 from any permutation to the next. We call such a sequence a tangle, and we define a move of element i…
We show that integral representation of universal volume function of compact simple Lie groups gives rise to six analytic functions on $CP^2$, which transform as two triplets under group of permutations of Vogel's projective parameters.…
A word $u$ is a subsequence of another word $w$ if $u$ can be obtained from $w$ by deleting some of its letters. The word $w$ with alph$(w)=\Sigma$ is called $k$-subsequence universal if the set of subsequences of length $k$ of $w$ contains…
We prove that the uniform probability measure $\mu$ on every $(n-k)$-dimensional projection of the $n$-dimensional unit cube verifies the variance conjecture with an absolute constant $C$ $$\textrm{Var}_\mu|x|^2\leq C \sup_{\theta\in…
A universally L^1 good sequence n_k is constructed with n_{k+1}-n_k tending to infinity. For ergodic transformations non-conventional ergodic averages of L^1 functions computed by using this sequence converge to the integral of the…
This is the fourth in a series of articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. In this…
A locally uniform random permutation is generated by sampling $n$ points independently from some absolutely continuous distribution $\rho$ on the plane and interpreting them as a permutation by the rule that $i$ maps to $j$ if the $i$th…
