In this paper we study the generating polynomials obtained by enumerating signed simsun permutations by number of the descents. Properties of the polynomials, including the recurrence relations and generating functions are studied.

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…

Stirling numbers, which count partitions of a set and permutations in the symmetric group, have found extensive application in combinatorics, geometry, and algebra. We study analogues and q-analogues of these numbers corresponding to the…

The aim of this paper is to study the $\lambda$-Stirling numbers of both kinds which are $\lambda$-analogues of Stirling numbers of both kinds. Those numbers have nice combinatorial interpretations when $\lambda$ are positive integers. If…

Simsun permutations, Andr\'e I permutations and Andr\'e II permutations are three combinatorial models for Euler numbers. It's known that the descent statistic is equidistributed over the set of Andr\'e I permutations and the set of simsun…

In this paper, we find distributions of the left-to-right maxima, right-to-left maxima, left-to-right minima and right-to-left-minima statistics on up-down and down-up permutations of even and odd lengths. For instance, we show that 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…

Motivated by a correlation between the distribution of descents over permutations that avoid a consecutive pattern and those avoiding the respective quasi-consecutive pattern, as established in this paper, we obtain a complete $\des$-Wilf…

The aim of this paper is to derive new representations for the Hankel functions, the Bessel functions and their derivatives, exploiting the reformulation of the method of steepest descents by M. V. Berry and C. J. Howls (Berry and Howls,…

It is a classical result that the parity-balance of the number of weak excedances of all permutations (derangements, respectively) of length $n$ is the Euler number $E_n$, alternating in sign, if $n$ is odd (even, respectively).…

Here we consider the degenerate Bernstein polynomials as a degenerate version of Bernstein polynomials, which are motivated by Simsek's recent work 'Generating functions for unification of the multidimensional Bernstein polynomials and…

We study a sorting procedure (run-sorting) on permutations, where runs are rearranged in lexicographic order. We describe a rather surprising bijection on permutations on length $n$, with the property that it sends the set of peak-values to…

A desarrangement is a permutation whose first ascent is even. Desarrangements were introduced in the 1980s by Jacques D\'{e}sarm\'{e}nien, who proved that they are in bijection with derangements. We revisit the study of desarrangements,…

The Eulerian polynomials enumerate permutations according to their number of descents. We initiate the study of descent polynomials over Cayley permutations, which we call Caylerian polynomials. Some classical results are generalized by…

A ballot permutation is a permutation $\pi$ such that in any prefix of $\pi$ the descent number is not more than the ascent number. By using a reversal concatenation map, we give a formula for the joint distribution (pk, des) of the peak…
