There was recent interest in Motzkin paths without peaks (peak: up-step followed immediately by down-step); additional results about this interesting family is worked out. The new results are the enumeration of such paths that live in a…
We study the path behavior of the simple symmetric walk on some comb-type subsets of Z^2 which are obtained from Z^2 by removing all horizontal edges belonging to certain sets of values on the y-axis. We obtain some strong approximation…
Using the generalized method of steepest descents for the case of two coalescing saddle points, we derive an asymptotic expression for the bivariate generating function of Dyck paths, weighted according to their length and their area in the…
We introduce the notion of pattern in the context of lattice paths, and investigate it in the specific case of Dyck paths. Similarly to the case of permutations, the pattern-containment relation defines a poset structure on the set of all…
Many important transport phenomena are described by simple mathematical models rooted in the diffusion equation. Geometrical constraints present in such phenomena often have influence of a universal sort and manifest themselves in scaling…
This paper concentrates on the set $\mathcal{V}_n$ of weighted Dyck paths of length $2n$ with special restrictions on the level of valleys. We first give its explicit formula of the counting generating function in terms of certain weight…
We calculate the total number of humps in Dyck and in Motzkin paths, and we give Standard-Young-Tableaux-interpretations of the numbers involved. One then observes the intriguing phenomena that the humps-calculations change the partitions…
The set of Dyck paths of length $2n$ inherits a lattice structure from a bijection with the set of noncrossing partitions with the usual partial order. In this paper, we study the joint distribution of two statistics for Dyck paths:…
A {\em k-generalized Dyck path} of length $n$ is a lattice path from $(0,0)$ to $(n,0)$ in the plane integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}$ consisting of horizontal-steps $(k, 0)$ for a given integer $k\geq 0$, up-steps $(1,1)$, and…
A simple 1D dynamical model of thermally driven disc winds is proposed, based on the results of recent, 2.5D axi-symmetric simulations. Our formulation of the disc wind problem is in the spirit of the original Parker (1958) and Bondi (1952)…
A particle subject to successive, random displacements is said to execute a random walk (in position or some other coordinate). The mathematical properties of random walks have been very thoroughly investigated, and the model is used in…
We consider the set of alternating paths on a fixed fully packed loop of size n. This set is in bijection with the set of fully packed loops of size n. Furthermore, for a special choice of fully packed loop, we demonstrate that the set of…
In this article we investigate the lattices of Dyck paths of type $A$ and $B$ under dominance order, and explicitly describe their Heyting algebra structure. This means that each Dyck path of either type has a relative pseudocomplement with…
This paper introduces nondeterministic walks, a new variant of one-dimensional discrete walks. At each step, a nondeterministic walk draws a random set of steps from a predefined set of sets and explores all possible extensions in parallel.…
We investigate paths in the hexagonal circle packing and enumerate them with respect to width, height, number of steps, area, and kissing number. Functional equations and the kernel method yield closed bivariate generating functions…
This paper presents a path planning method for partial field coverage. Therefore, a specific path planning pattern is proposed. The notion is that lighter machinery with smaller storage tanks can alleviate soil compaction because of a…
Discrete-time quantum walk in one-dimension is studied from a path-integral perspective. This enables derivation of a closed-form expression for amplitudes corresponding to any coin-position basis of the state vector of the quantum walker…
It is a longstanding open problem to find a bijection exchanging area and bounce statistics on Dyck paths. We settle this problem for an exponentially large subset of Dyck paths via an explicit bijection. Moreover, we prove that this…
The present letter gives a rigorous way from quantum to classical random walks by introducing an independent random fluctuation and then taking expectations based on a path integral approach.
We study the enumeration of different classes of grand knight's paths in the plane. In particular, we focus on the subsets of zigzag knight's paths that are subject to constraints. These constraints include ending at $y$-coordinate 0,…
