Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers and let $S_{n,A}$ be the set of all permutations of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$ with cycle lengths belonging to $A$. For $A(n)=A\cap [n]$, the limit $\rho=\lim_{n\to\infty}\mid A(n)\mid/n$ (if it esists) is…

It has been shown by various authors under different assumptions that the diameter of a bounded non-trivial set $\gamma$ under the action of a stochastic flow grows linearly in time. We show that the asymptotic linear expansion speed if…

We consider the continuous superposition of operators of the form \[ \iint_{[0, 1]\times (1, N)} (-\Delta)_p^s \,u\,d\mu(s,p), \] where $\mu$ denotes a signed measure over the set $[0, 1]\times (1, N)$, joined to a nonlinearity satisfying a…

Part I of this series (arXiv:2602.09029) develops a sharp Gaussian (LAN/GDP) limit theory for neighboring shuffle experiments when the local randomizer is fixed and has full support bounded away from zero. The present paper characterizes…

For a word $\pi$ and integer $i$, we define $L^i(\pi)$ to be the length of the longest subsequence of the form $i(i+1)\cdots j$, and we let $L(\pi):=\max_i L^i(\pi)$. In this paper we estimate the expected values of $L^1(\pi)$ and $L(\pi)$…

The Birkhoff graph $\mathcal{B}_n$ is the Cayley graph of the symmetric group $S_n$, where two permutations are adjacent if they differ by a single cycle. Our main result is a tighter upper bound on the independence number…

We study decomposable combinatorial labeled structures in the exp-log class, specifically, two examples of type a=1 and two examples of type a=1/2. Our approach is to establish how well existing theory matches experimental data. For…

We show that the problem of computing the distance of a given permutation from a subgroup $H$ of $S_n$ is in general NP-complete, even under the restriction that $H$ is elementary Abelian of exponent 2. The problem is shown to be…

We study the fluctuations, in the large deviations regime, of the longest increasing subsequence of a random i.i.d. sample on the unit square. In particular, our results yield the precise upper and lower exponential tails for the length of…

For $d \geq 2$ and $n \in \mathbb{N}$ even, let $p_n = p_n(d)$ denote the number of length $n$ self-avoiding polygons in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ up to translation. The polygon cardinality grows exponentially, and the growth rate $\lim_{n \in…

The order $O_n(\sigma)$ of a permutation $\sigma$ of $n$ objects is the smallest integer $k \geq 1$ such that the $k$-th iterate of $\sigma$ gives the identity. A remarkable result about the order of a uniformly chosen permutation is due to…

In exponential last passage percolation, we consider the rescaled Busemann process $x\mapsto N^{-1/3}B^\rho_{0,[xN^{2/3}]e_1} \,\, (x\in\mathbb{R})$, as a process parametrized by the scaled density $\rho=1/2+\frac{\mu}{4} N^{-1/3}$, and…

A permutation is square-free if it does not contain two consecutive factors of length two or more that are order-isomorphic. A square-free permutation of length $n$ is $P$-crucial, where $P$ is a subset of $\{0,1,\ldots,n\}$, if any of its…

Given two permutations $\sigma$ and $\pi$, the \textsc{Permutation Pattern} problem asks if $\sigma$ is a subpattern of $\pi$. We show that the problem can be solved in time $2^{O(\ell^2\log \ell)}\cdot n$, where $\ell=|\sigma|$ and…
