Recently proposed budding tree is a decision tree algorithm in which every node is part internal node and part leaf. This allows representing every decision tree in a continuous parameter space, and therefore a budding tree can be jointly…
We resolve a question of Gillespie, Griffin, and Levinson that asks for a combinatorial bijection between two classes of trivalent trees, tournament trees and slide trees, that both naturally arise in the intersection theory of the moduli…
We introduce and analyse a new, extremely simple, randomised sorting algorithm: - choose a pair of indices $\{i, j\}$ according to some distribution $q$; - sort the elements in positions $i$ and $j$ of the array in ascending order. Choosing…
Sorting and permutation learning are key concepts in optimization and machine learning, especially when organizing high-dimensional data into meaningful spatial layouts. The Gumbel-Sinkhorn method, while effective, requires N*N parameters…
We discuss efficient methods for unranking derangements and m\'enage permutations. That is, we will provide an algorithm to efficiently extract the $k$-th earliest such permutation under the lexicographic ordering. We will show that this…
In this thesis, we apply the stack sorting operator to $r$-permutations and construct the functional equation for the generating function of two-stack-sortable $k$-tuple $r$-permutations counted by descents by using a factorization similar…
Let $s$ denote West's stack-sorting map. A permutation is called $t-\textit{sorted}$ if it is of the form $s^t(\mu)$ for some permutation $\mu$. We prove that the maximum number of descents that a $t$-sorted permutation of length $n$ can…
Let I_n(\pi) denote the number of involutions in the symmetric group S_n which avoid the permutation \pi. We say that two permutations \alpha,\beta\in\S{j} may be exchanged if for every n, k, and ordering \tau of j+1,...,k, we have…
Corner trees, introduced in "Even-Zohar and Leng, 2021, Proceedings of the 2021 ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms", allow for the efficient counting of certain permutation patterns. Here we identify corner trees as a subset of…
Following the footprints of what have been done with the algorithm Stacksort, we investigate the preimages of the map associated with a slightly less well known algorithm, called Queuesort. After having described an equivalent version of…
An (n,d)-permutation code is a subset C of Sym(n) such that the Hamming distance d_H between any two distinct elements of C is at least equal to d. In this paper, we use the characterisation of the isometry group of the metric space…
Suppose the data consist of a set $S$ of points $x_j$, $1\leq j \leq J$, distributed in a bounded domain $D\subset R^N$, where $N$ is a large number. An algorithm is given for finding the sets $L_k$ of dimension $k\ll N$, $k=1,2,...K$, in a…
Sorting algorithms are fundamental to computer science, and their correctness criteria are well understood as rearranging elements of a list according to a specified total order on the underlying set of elements. As mathematical functions,…
DTG are designed to share some of the advantages of TAG while overcoming some of its limitations. DTG involve two composition operations called subsertion and sister-adjunction. The most distinctive feature of DTG is that, unlike TAG, there…
We study sorting by queues that can rearrange their content by applying permutations from a predefined set. These new sorting devices are called shuffle queues and we investigate those of them corresponding to sets of permutations defining…
Much of the copious literature on the subject of sorting has concentrated on minimizing the number of comparisons and/or exchanges/copies. However, a more appropriate yardstick for the performance of sorting algorithms is based on the total…
In [4] we describe a variation of the classical permutation decoding algorithm that can be applied to any binary affine-invariant code; in particular, it can be applied to first-order Reed-Muller codes successfully. In this paper we study…
In this paper, a sorting technique is presented that takes as input a data set whose primary key domain is known to the sorting algorithm, and works with an time efficiency of O(n+k), where k is the primary key domain. It is shown that the…
Reverse search is a convenient method for enumerating structured objects, that can be used both to address theoretical issues and to solve data mining problems. This method has already been successfully developed to handle unordered trees.…
Learning distributions over permutations is a fundamental problem in machine learning, with applications in ranking, combinatorial optimization, structured prediction, and data association. Existing methods rely on mixtures of parametric…
