This paper studies which functions computed by $\mathbb{Z}$-weighted automata can be realized by $\mathbb{N}$-weighted automata, under two extra assumptions: commutativity (the order of letters in the input does not matter) and polynomial…
We introduce a new statistic on the hyperoctahedral groups (Coxeter groups of type B), and give a conjectural formula for its signed distributions over arbitrary descent classes. The statistic is analogous to the classical Coxeter length…
Folding subgroups give a way to realize non-simply-laced Coxeter groups as subgroups of simply-laced Coxeter groups. In this paper, we study how folding subgroups of finite and affine type are distributed length-wise by calculating the…
It is well known that linear rank-metric codes give rise to q-polymatroids. Analogously to matroid theory one may ask whether a given q-polymatroid is representable by a rank-metric code. We provide an answer by presenting an example of a…
We use generating functions to express orthogonality relations in the form of $q$-beta integrals. The integrand of such a $q$-beta integral is then used as a weight function for a new set of orthogonal or biorthogonal
We present a new proof of the monomial case of Wilmes' conjecture, which gives a formula for the coarsely-graded Betti numbers of the G-parking function ideal in terms of maximal parking functions of contractions of G. Our proof is via…
We construct a $k$-fold $q$-series as a generating function of $k$-regular partitions for each positive integer $k$. The $k=1$ case is one of Euler's $q$-series identities pertaining to the partitions into distinct parts. The construction…
Two confluent rewriting systems in noncommutatives polynomials are constructed using the equations allowing the identification of the local coordinates (of second kind) of the graphs of the $\zeta$ polymorphism as being (shuffle or…
A weighted bicolored plane tree is a bicolored plane tree whose edges are endowed with positive integral weights. The degree of a vertex is defined as the sum of the weights of the edges incident to this vertex. Using the theory of dessins…
We enumerate interlaced pairs of parking functions whose underlying Dyck path has a bounded height. We obtain an explicit formula for this enumeration in the form of a quotient of analogs of Chebicheff polynomials having coefficients in the…
We give an elementary, case-free, Coxeter-theoretic derivation of the formula $h^nn!/|W|$ for the number of maximal chains in the noncrossing partition lattice $NC(W)$ of a real reflection group $W$. Our proof proceeds by comparing the…
Classical parking functions are a generalization of permutations that appear in many combinatorial structures. Prime parking functions are indecomposable components such that any classical parking function can be uniquely described as a…
We present a bijection between two well-known objects in the ubiquitous Catalan family: non-decreasing parking functions and {\L}ukasiewicz paths. This bijection maps the maximal displacement of a parking function to the height of the…
We study subadditive functions of the random parking model previously analyzed by the second author. In particular, we consider local functions $S$ of subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ and of point sets that are (almost) subadditive in their first…
A Catalan word of length $n$ that avoids the pattern $(\geq, \geq)$ is a sequence $w=w_1\cdots w_n$ with $w_1=0$ and $0\leq w_i\leq w_{i-1}+1$ for all $i$, while ensuring that no subsequence satisfies $w_i \geq w_{i+1}\geq w_{i+2}$ for…
We consider sequences of integers defined by a system of linear inequalities with integer coefficients. We show that when the constraints are strong enough to guarantee that all the entries are nonnegative, the generating function for the…
Suppose that $m$ drivers each choose a preferred parking space in a linear car park with $n$ spots. In order, each driver goes to their chosen spot and parks there if possible, and otherwise takes the next available spot if it exists. If…
The higher $q,t$-Catalan polynomial $C^{(m)}_n(q,t)$ can be defined combinatorially as a weighted sum of lattice paths contained in certain triangles, or algebraically as a complicated sum of rational functions indexed by partitions of $n$.…
We study the parking process on the random recursive tree. We first prove that although the random recursive tree has a non-degenerate Benjamini--Schramm limit, the phase transition for the parking process appears at density $0$. We then…
Consider the vector space $\mathbb{K}\mathcal{P}$ spanned by parking functions. By representing parking functions as labeled digraphs, Hivert, Novelli and Thibon constructed a cocommutative Hopf algebra PQSym$^{*}$ on…
