A permutation $\pi$ of a multiset is said to be a {\em quasi-Stirling } permutation if there does not exist four indices $i<j<k<\ell$ such that $\pi_i=\pi_k$ and $\pi_j=\pi_{\ell}$. Define $$ \overline{Q}_{\mathcal{M}}(t,u,v)=\sum_{\pi\in…

Given a general multiset $\mathcal{M}=\{1^{m_1},2^{m_2},\ldots,n^{m_n}\}$, where $i$ appears $m_i$ times, a multipermutation $\pi$ of $\mathcal{M}$ is called {\em quasi-Stirling}, if it contains no subword of the form $abab$ with $a\neq b$.…

We prove that the enumerative polynomials of quasi-Stirling permutations of multisets with respect to the statistics of plateaux, descents and ascents are partial $\gamma$-positive, thereby confirming a recent conjecture posed by Lin, Ma…

Stirling permutations were introduced by Gessel and Stanley, who used their enumeration by the number of descents to give a combinatorial interpretation of certain polynomials related to Stirling numbers. Quasi-Stirling permutations, which…

We define a variation of Stirling permutations, called quasi-Stirling permutations, to be permutations on the multiset $\{1,1,2,2,\ldots, n,n\}$ that avoid the patterns 1212 and 2121. Their study is motivated by a known relationship between…

A permutation $\sigma$ of a multiset is called Stirling permutation if $\sigma(s)\ge \sigma(i)$ as soon as $\sigma(i)=\sigma(j)$ and $i<s<j.$ In our paper we study Stirling polynomials that arise in the generating function for descent…

We consider certain functional identities on the matrix algebra $M_n$ that are defined similarly as the trace identities, except that the "coefficients" are arbitrary polynomials, not necessarily those expressible by the traces. The main…

The Stirling permutations introduced by Gessel-Stanley have recently received considerable attention. Motivated by Ji's work on $(\alpha,\beta)$-Eulerian polynomials (Sci China Math., 2025) and Yan-Yang-Lin's work on $1/k$-Eulerian…

In the context of Stirling polynomials, Gessel and Stanley introduced the definition of Stirling permutation, which has attracted extensive attention over the past decades. Recently, we introduced Stirling permutation code and provided…

A permutation of the multiset $\{1^m,2^m,\dots,n^m\}$ is a {\em canon permutation} if the subsequence formed by the $j$th copy of each element of $[n]:=\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ is identical for all $j\in[m]$. Canon permutations were introduced by…

Motivated by recent results on quasi-Stirling permutations, which are permutations of the multiset $\{1,1,2,2,\dots,n,n\}$ that avoid the "crossing" patterns 1212 and 2121, we consider nonnesting permutations, defined as those that avoid…

It is well known that ascents, descents and plateaux are equidistributed over the set of classical Stirling permutations. Their common enumerative polynomials are the second-order Eulerian polynomials, which have been extensively studied by…

Recall that a Stirling permutation is a permutation on the multiset $\{1,1,2,2,\ldots,n,n\}$ such that any numbers appearing between repeated values of $i$ must be greater than $i$. We call a Stirling permutation ``flattened'' if the…

An equivariant characteristic quasi-polynomial is a quasi-polynomial in $q$ consisting of the permutation character on the mod $q$ complement of the corresponding Coxeter arrangement. This concept is a refinement of the conventional…

For a set of permutation patterns $\Pi$, let $F^\text{st}_n(\Pi,q)$ be the st-polynomial of permutations avoiding all patterns in $\Pi$. Suppose $312\in\Pi$. For a class of permutation statistics which includes inversion and descent…

In this paper, we study quasi-twisted codes and their relationship with additive constacyclic codes through a polynomial-based approach. We first present a polynomial characterization of quasi-twisted codes over finite fields analogous to…

A permutation statistic $\operatorname{st}$ is said to be shuffle-compatible if the distribution of $\operatorname{st}$ over the set of shuffles of two disjoint permutations $\pi$ and $\sigma$ depends only on $\operatorname{st}\pi$,…

Let $K$ be a field, $R=K[x, y]$ the polynomial ring and $\mathcal{M}(K)$ the set of all pairs of square matrices of the same size over $K.$ Pairs $P_1=(A_1,B_1)$ and $P_2=(A_2,B_2)$ from $\mathcal{M}(K)$ are called similar if…

This paper is devoted to studying difference indices of quasi-prime difference algebraic systems. We define the quasi dimension polynomial of a quasi-prime difference algebraic system. Based on this, we give the definition of the difference…

We study new statistics on permutations that are variations on the descent and the inversion statistics. In particular, we consider the alternating descent set of a permutation sigma = sigma_1sigma_2...sigma_n defined as the set of indices…
