In the symmetric group $S_n$, each element $\sigma$ has an associated cycle type $\alpha$, a partition of $n$ that identifies the conjugacy class of $\sigma$. The Robinson-Schensted (RS) correspondence links each $\sigma$ to another…
This paper establishes an analogue of the Robinson--Schensted correspondence for cylindric tableaux. In particular, for any pair of positive integers $(d,L)$, we construct a bijection between permutations that avoid the patterns $d\cdots 1…
A cycle system of order $n$ is a decomposition of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ into cycles of a fixed length. A cycle system is said to be $k$-colourable if we can assign $k$ colours to its vertices so that no cycle is…
The RSK correspondence is a bijection between permutations and pairs of standard Young tableaux with identical shape, where the tableaux are commonly denoted $P$ (insertion) and $Q$ (recording). It has been an open problem to demonstrate $$…
The RSK correspondence generalises the Robinson-Schensted correspondence by replacing permutation matrices by matrices with entries in ${\bf N}$, and standard Young tableaux by semistandard ones. For $r>0$, the Robinson-Schensted…
The Robinson-Schensted-Knuth (RSK) algorithm maps an integer matrix to a pair of semi-standard Young tableaux (SSYTs) whose underlying shape has the same integer partition. We study the set of matrices associated with a given partition…
The notion of descent set, for permutations as well as for standard Young tableaux (SYT), is classical. Cellini introduced a natural notion of {\em cyclic descent set} for permutations, and Rhoades introduced such a notion for SYT --- but…
We characterise those classes of permutations having the property that for every tableau shape either every permutation of that shape or no permutation of that shape belongs to the class. The characterisation is in terms of the dominance…
The Robinson-Schensted-Knuth (RSK) correspondence is a bijective correspondence between two-rowed arrays of non-negative integers and pairs of same-shape semistandard tableaux. This correspondence satisfies the symmetry property, that is,…
We consider two examples of a fully decodable combinatorial encoding of Bernoulli schemes: the encoding via Weyl simplices and the much more complicated encoding via the RSK (Robinson--Schensted--Knuth) correspondence. In the first case,…
We exhibit a weight-preserving bijection between semi-standard Young tableaux and semi-skyline augmented fillings to provide a combinatorial proof that the Schur functions decompose into nonsymmetric functions indexed by compositions. The…
Unimodal (i.e. single-humped) permutations may be decomposed into a product of disjoint cycles. Some enumerative results concerning their cyclic structure -- e.g. 2/3 of them contain fixed points -- are given. We also obtain in effect a…
We give an affine analogue of the Robison-Schensted-Knuth (RSK) correspondence, which generalizes the affine Robinson-Schensted correspondence by Chmutov-Pylyavskyy-Yudovina. The affine RSK map sends a generalized affine permutation of…
Any permutation has a disjoint cycle decomposition and concept generates an equivalence class on the symmetry group called the cycle-type. The main focus of this work is on permutations of restricted cycle-types, with particular emphasis on…
Promotion permutations have recently been associated to each rectangular standard Young tableau by Gaetz--Pechenik--Pfannerer--Striker--Swanson. Here we relate promotion permutations to the Robinson--Schensted (RS) correspondence. More…
A notion of cyclic descents on standard Young tableaux (SYT) of rectangular shape was introduced by Rhoades, and extended to certain skew shapes by the last two authors. The cyclic descent set restricts to the usual descent set when the…
We introduce a notion of {\em cyclic Schur-positivity} for sets of permutations, which naturally extends the classical notion of Schur-positivity, and it involves the existence of a bijection from permutations to standard Young tableaux…
We consider two partial orders on standard Young tableaux. The first one is induced from the weak right Bruhat order on symmetric group by Robinson-Schensted algorithm. The second one is induced from the order on Young diagrams by…
We undertake a detailed investigation into the structure of permutations in monotone grid classes whose row-column graphs do not contain components with more than one cycle. Central to this investigation is a new decomposition, called the…
It is known that the number of permutations in the symmetric group $S_{2n}$ with cycles of odd lengths only is equal to the number of permutations with cycles of even lengths only. We prove a refinement of this equality, involving descent…
