Rowmotion is an invertible operator on the order ideals of a poset which has been extensively studied and is well understood for the rectangle poset. In this paper, we show that rowmotion is equivariant with respect to a bijection of…
In this paper, we simplify and generalize formulas for the expansion of rank 2 cluster variables. In particular, we prove an equivalent, but simpler, description of the colored Dyck subpaths framework introduced by Lee and Schiffler. We…
Let $P$ be a finite poset and $L$ the associated distributive lattice of order ideals of $P$. Let $\rho$ denote the rowmotion bijection of the order ideals of $P$ viewed as a permutation matrix and $C$ the Coxeter matrix for the incidence…
We relate the combinatorics of periodic generalized Dyck and Motzkin paths to the cluster coefficients of particles obeying generalized exclusion statistics, and obtain explicit expressions for the counting of paths with a fixed number of…
In this note we introduce several instructive examples of bijections found between several different combinatorially defined sequences of sets. Each sequence has cardinalities given by the Catalan numbers. Our results answer some questions…
We introduce a general model of dimer coverings of certain plane bipartite graphs, which we call rail yard graphs (RYG). The transfer matrices used to compute the partition function are shown to be isomorphic to certain operators arising in…
Recently, in papers by Knutson, Tao and Woodward, Henriques and Kamnitzer, Pak and Vallejo have been constructed several interesting bijections of associativity and commutativity. In the first two papers bijections relate special sets of…
We provide a combinatorial proof of Tutte's decomposition of rooted bicubic planar maps into 3-connected components. Motivated by the framework of Bell transformations, we establish an explicit bijection between rooted bicubic planar maps…
We construct a direct natural bijection between descending plane partitions without any special part and permutations. The directness is in the sense that the bijection avoids any reference to nonintersecting lattice paths. The advantage of…
It is shown that generalized Rota-Baxter operators introduced in [W.A. Martinez, E.G. Reyes & M. Ronco, Int. J. Geom. Meth. Mod. Phys. 18 (2021) 2150176] are a special case of Rota-Baxter systems [T. Brzezi\'nski, J. Algebra 460 (2016),…
We define P-strict labelings for a finite poset P as a generalization of semistandard Young tableaux and show that promotion on these objects is in equivariant bijection with a toggle action on B-bounded Q-partitions of an associated poset…
We start with an ``algebraic'' RSK-correspondence due to Noumi and Yamada. Given a matrix $X$, we consider a pyramidal array of solid minors of $X$. It turns out that this array satisfies an algebraic variant of octahedron recurrence. The…
We use a Hamiltonian (transition matrix) description of height-restricted Dyck paths on the plane in which generating functions for the paths arise as matrix elements of the propagator to evaluate the length and area generating function for…
Set partitions avoiding $k$-crossing and $k$-nesting have been extensively studied from the aspects of both combinatorics and mathematical biology. By using the generating tree technique, the obstinate kernel method and Zeilberger's…
We present a simple bijection between permutation matrices and descending plane partitions without special parts. This bijection is already mentioned in work of P. Lalonde (without giving the details); it involves the inversion words of…
Dyck paths are among the most heavily studied Catalan families. We work with peaks and valleys to uniquely decompose Dyck paths into the simplest objects - prime fragments with a single peak. Each Dyck path is uniquely characterized by a…
A permutation whose any prefix has no more descents than ascents is called a ballot permutation. In this paper, we present a decomposition of ballot permutations that enables us to construct a bijection between ballot permutations and odd…
We present an algorithmic mapping from permutations of length dn to labeled n-node d-ary trees and back again. Given such a bijection, one can interpret each of the factorials in the formula for the Catalan numbers as a count of…
Chen and collaborators give a recursively defined bijection from 021-avoiding ascent sequences to 021-avoiding (aka 132-avoiding) permutations. Here we give an algorithmic bijection from 021-avoiding ascent sequences to Dyck paths. Our…
We present several direct bijections between different combinatorial interpretations of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. The bijections are defined by explicit linear maps which have other applications.
