We consider a random walk on the mapping class group of a surface of finite type. We assume that the random walk is determined by a probability measure whose support is finite and generates a non-elementary subgroup $H$. We further assume…
Given a random word of size $n$ whose letters are drawn independently from an ordered alphabet of size $m$, the fluctuations of the shape of the random RSK Young tableaux are investigated, when $n$ and $m$ converge together to infinity. If…
We study proportions of consecutive occurrences of permutations of a given size. Specifically, the limit of such proportions on large permutations forms a region, called \emph{feasible region}. We show that this feasible region is a…
Consider a random graph $G$ of size $N$ constructed according to a \textit{graphon} $w \, : \, [0,1]^{2} \mapsto [0,1]$ as follows. First embed $N$ vertices $V = \{v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_N\}$ into the interval $[0,1]$, then for each $i < j$…
In this paper, we study merging-free partitions with their canonical forms and run-sorted permutations. We give a combinatorial proof of the conjecture made by Nabawanda et al. We describe the distribution of the statistics of runs and…
We use various combinatorial and probabilistic techniques to study growth rates for the probability that a random permutation from the Mallows distribution avoids consecutive patterns. The Mallows distribution behaves like a $q$-analogue of…
The number of fixed points of a random permutation of 1,2,...,n has a limiting Poisson distribution. We seek a generalization, looking at other actions of the symmetric group. Restricting attention to primitive actions, a complete…
The limiting distribution of the normalized number of comparisons used by Quicksort to sort an array of n numbers is known to be the unique fixed point with zero mean of a certain distributional transformation S. We study the convergence to…
We study limit laws for simple random walks on supercritical long-range percolation clusters on the integer lattice. For the long range percolation model, the probability that two vertices are connected behaves asymptotically as a negative…
Let $(\{1,2,\ldots,n\},d)$ be a metric space. We analyze the expected value and the variance of $\sum_{i=1}^{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}\,d({\boldsymbol{\pi}}(2i-1),{\boldsymbol{\pi}}(2i))$ for a uniformly random permutation ${\boldsymbol{\pi}}$ of…
Building on the work of Grinberg and Stanley, we begin a systematic study of permutations with a prescribed $X$-descent set. In particular, for a set $X \subseteq \mathbb{N}^2$, and $I \subseteq [n-1]$, we study the permutations $\pi \in…
We consider a random permutation drawn from the set of permutations of length $n$ that avoid some given set of patterns of length 3. We show that the number of occurrences of another pattern $\sigma$ has a limit distribution, after suitable…
Generalizing stack sorting and $c$-sorting for permutations, we define the permutree sorting algorithm. Given two disjoint subsets $U$ and $D$ of $\{2, \dots, n-1\}$, the $(U,D)$-permutree sorting tries to sort the permutation $\pi \in…
A sorting network (also known as a reduced decomposition of the reverse permutation), is a shortest path from $12 \cdots n$ to $n \cdots 21$ in the Cayley graph of the symmetric group $S_n$ generated by adjacent transpositions. We prove…
We construct and analyze several new families of permutons arising from random processes involving the Demazure product on the symmetric group. First, we consider Demazure products associated to random pipe dreams, generalizing the…
Our main result is a limit shape theorem for the two-dimensional surface defined by a uniform random n-by-n square Young tableau. The analysis leads to a calculus of variations minimization problem that resembles the minimization problems…
A {\it uniformly $p$-to-one endomorphism} is a measure-preserving map with entropy log $p$ which is almost everywhere $p$-to-one and for which the conditional expectation of each preimage is precisely $1/p$. The {\it standard} example of…
We determine the sharp asymptotic scale of the probability that two uniformly random permutations are comparable in weak Bruhat order, showing that $\mathbb{P}(\sigma_1 \preceq_W \sigma_2)=\exp\Bigl(\bigl(-\tfrac12+o(1)\bigr)\,n\log…
This is an expository note answering a question posed to us by Richard Stanley, in which we prove a limit shape theorem for partitions of $n$ which maximize the number of subpartitions. The limit shape and the growth rate of the number of…
Let $\pi=(\pi_1,\pi_2,\hdots,\pi_n)$ be permutation of the elements $1,2,\hdots,n. $ Positive integer $k\leq2^{n-1}$ we call index of $\pi,$ if in its binary notation as $n$-digital binary number, the 1's correspond to the ascent points. We…
