In 1966, Konheim and Weiss [33] introduced a now classical parking protocol. The deterministic process and its resultant objects, known as parking functions, have since become a favorite object of study in enumerative combinatorics. In our…
Parking functions correspond with preferences of $n$ cars which enter sequentially to park on a one-way street where (1) each car parks in the first available spot greater than or equal to its preference and (2) all cars successfully park.…
In this paper, we investigate the parking process on a uniform random rooted binary tree with $n$ vertices. Viewing each vertex as a single parking space, a random number of cars independently arrive at and attempt to park on each vertex…
This article proposes two different approaches to automatically create a map for valid on-street car parking spaces. For this, we use car sharing park-out events data. The first one uses spatial aggregation and the second a machine learning…
In a parking function, a lucky car is a car that parks in its preferred parking spot and the parking outcome is the permutation encoding the order in which the cars park on the street. We give a characterization for the set of parking…
A parking function is a sequence $(a_1,\dots, a_n)$ of positive integers such that if $b_1\leq\cdots\leq b_n$ is the increasing rearrangement of $a_1,\dots,a_n$, then $b_i\leq i$ for $1\leq i\leq n$. In this paper we obtain some new results…
We propose a characterization of $k$-Naples parking functions in terms of subsequences with the structure of a complete $k$-Naples parking function. We define complete parking preferences by requiring that for all $j=2,\dots,n$, the number…
The choice of forward and reverse parking in a parking lot is studied as a stochastic process. An $M/M/c/c$ queueing system is used as an initial framework. We use Monte Carlo simulation to get the relationship between vehicle orientation…
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…
Searching for a parking spot can waste time and gasoline. This waste can be reduced by assigning drivers to parking lots based on their destination and arrival time. In such a system, drivers could request a parking spot in advance and be…
In a parking function, a car is considered lucky if it is able to park in its preferred spot. Extending work of Harris and Martinez, we enumerate outcomes of parking functions with a fixed set of lucky cars. We then consider a…
Naples parking functions were introduced as a generalization of classical parking functions, in which cars are allowed to park backwards, by checking up to a fixed number of previous slots, before proceedings forward as usual. In our…
Robots that can manipulate objects in unstructured environments and collaborate with humans can benefit immensely by understanding natural language. We propose a pipelined architecture of two stages to perform spatial reasoning on the text…
We extend the notion of parking functions to parking sequences, which include cars of different sizes, and prove a product formula for the number of such sequences.
This paper provides an exploration of parking functions, a classical combinatorial object. We present two viewpoints on their structure and properties: through poset of noncrossing partitions and polytopes.
A parking function $(c_1,\ldots,c_n)$ can be viewed as having $n$ cars trying to park on a one-way street with $n$ parking spots, where car $i$ tries to park in spot $c_i$, and otherwise he parks in the leftmost available spot after $c_i$.…
Consider an infinite tree with random degrees, i.i.d. over the sites, with a prescribed probability distribution with generating function G(s). We consider the following variation of Renyi's parking problem, alternatively called blocking…
We introduce type C parking functions, encoded as vertically labelled lattice paths and endowed with a statistic dinv'. We define a bijection from type C parking functions to regions of the Shi arrangement of type C, encoded as diagonally…
We introduce parking assortments, a generalization of parking functions with cars of assorted lengths. In this setting, there are $n\in\mathbb{N}$ cars of lengths $\mathbf{y}=(y_1,y_2,\ldots,y_n)\in\mathbb{N}^n$ entering a one-way street…
We show that the notion of parkization of a word, a variant of the classical standardization, allows to introduce an internal product on the Hopf algebra of parking functions. Its Catalan subalgebra is stable under this operation and…
