By means of the generating function method, a linear recurrence relation is explicitly resolved. The solution is expressed in terms of the Stirling numbers of both the first and the second kind. Two remarkable pairs of combinatorial…

We study positional statistics for four families of pattern-avoiding permutations counted by the large Schr\"oder numbers. Specifically, we focus on the pairs of patterns {2413,3142} (separable permutations), {1324,1423}, {1423,2413}, and…

A permutation $\sigma\in\mathfrak{S}_n$ is simsun if for all $k$, the subword of $\sigma$ restricted to $\{1,...,k\}$ does not have three consecutive decreasing elements. The permutation $\sigma$ is double simsun if both $\sigma$ and…

We prove several general formulas for the distributions of various permutation statistics over any set of permutations whose quasisymmetric generating function is a symmetric function. Our formulas involve certain kinds of plethystic…

The fundamental bijection is a bijection $\theta:\mathcal{S}_n\to\mathcal{S}_n$ in which one uses the standard cycle form of one permutation to obtain another permutation in one-line form. In this paper, we enumerate the set of permutations…

We prove a central limit theorem for the length of the longest subsequence of a random permutation which follows one of a class of repeating patterns. This class includes every fixed pattern of ups and downs having at least one of each,…

The report studies the generation of ternary bent functions by permuting the circular Vilenkin_Chrestenson spectrum of a known bent function. We call this spectral invariant operations in the spectral domain, in analogy to the spectral…

In this paper, we study the distribution of consecutive patterns in the set of 123-avoiding permutations and the set of 132-avoiding permutations, that is, in $\mathcal{S}_n(123)$ and $\mathcal{S}_n(132)$. We first study the distribution of…

We study groups generated by sets of pattern avoiding permutations. In the first part of the paper we prove some general results concerning the structure of such groups. In the second part we carry out a case-by-case analysis of groups…

In this article we consider the cycle structure of compositions of pairs of involutions in the symmetric group S_n chosen uniformly at random. These can be modeled as modified 2-regular graphs, giving rise to exponential generating…

Let $G$ be a group. Then $S\subseteq G$ is an invariable generating set of $G$ if every subset $S'$ obtained from $S$ by replacing each element with a conjugate is also a generating set of $G$. We investigate invariable generation among key…

We define integer multimodal sequences, which are generalizations of unimodal sequences having multiple local peaks of equal size. The generating functions for multimodal sequences represent novel types of $q$-series that combine generating…

A simple permutation is one which maps no proper non-singleton interval onto an interval. We consider the enumeration of simple permutations from several aspects. Our results include a straightforward relationship between the ordinary…

We introduce the stack-sorting map $\text{SC}_\sigma$ that sorts, in a right-greedy manner, an input permutation through a stack that avoids some vincular pattern $\sigma$. The stack-sorting maps of Cerbai et al. in which the stack avoids a…

At the end of the 1960s, Knuth characterised the permutations that can be sorted using a stack in terms of forbidden patterns. He also showed that they are in bijection with Dyck paths and thus counted by the Catalan numbers. Subsequently,…

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…

In this paper we study a class of dynamical systems generated by iterations of multivariate permutation polynomial systems which lead to polynomial growth of the degrees of these iterations. Using these estimates and the same techniques…

We present an easily defined countable family of permutations of the natural numbers for which explicit rearrangements (i.e., the sums induced by the permutations) can be computed. The digamma function proves to be the key tool for the…

The extension of pattern avoidance from ordinary permutations to those on multisets gave birth to several interesting enumerative results. We study permutations on regular multisets, i.e., multisets in which each element occurs the same…

Time evolution equations for dynamical systems can often be derived from generating functionals. Examples are Newton's equations of motion in classical dynamics which can be generated within the Lagrange or the Hamiltonian formalism. We…
