A $d$-dimensional generalization of a Latin square of order $n$ can be considered as a chess-board of size $n\times n\times \ldots\times n$ ($d$ times), containing $n^d$ cells with $n^{d-1}$ non-attacking rooks. Each cell is identified by a…
This paper considers a problem that relates to the theories of covering arrays, permutation patterns, Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) classes, and probability thresholds. Specifically, we want to find the number of subsets of [n]:={1,2,....,n} we…
We introduce tableau stabilization, a new phenomenon and statistic on Young tableaux based on jeu de taquin. We investigate bounds for tableau stabilization, the shape of stabilized tableaux, and tableau stabilization as a permutation…
The Harary-Hill Conjecture states that for $n\geq 3$ every drawing of $K_n$ has at least \begin{align*} H(n) :=…
Let $\delta=(\delta_1,\ldots,\delta_n)$ be a string of letters $h$ and $v$. We define a Young tableau to be $\delta$-semistandard if the entries are weakly increasing along rows and columns, and the entries $i$ form a horizontal strip if…
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…
We consider a growing network in which an incoming node gets attached to the $i^{th}$ existing node with the probability $\Pi_i \propto {k_i}^{\beta}\tau_i^{\alpha}$, where $k_{i}$ is the degree of the $i^{th}$ node and $\tau_i$ its present…
Barely set-valued tableaux are a variant of Young tableaux in which one box contains two numbers as its entry. It has recently been discovered that there are product formulas enumerating certain classes of barely set-valued tableaux. We…
Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group of order $n$. Say that two subsets $x, y\subseteq S_n$ are \emph{equivalent} if there exist permutations $g_1, g_2\in S_n$ such that $g_1xg_2=y$, where multiplication is understood elementwise. Recently,…
Tree-like tableaux are combinatorial objects that appear in a combinatorial understanding of the PASEP model from statistical mechanics. In this understanding, the corners of the Southeast border correspond to the locations where a particle…
We consider 2-dimensional random simplicial complexes $Y$ in the multi-parameter model. We establish the multi-parameter threshold for the property that every 2-dimensional simplicial complex $S$ admits a topological embedding into $Y$…
We introduce a family of domination-type problems in Cartesian products of two graphs. The framework captures several well-studied topics, including variants of bootstrap percolation, line growth, distance domination, and target set…
Partially ordered sets of type (k, n) are the sets such that a) cardinality of each set is n, b) dimension of each set is two, c) length of the maximal antichain in each set is k. Let \alpha_k(n) be the number of partially ordered sets of…
We investigate two closely related setups. In the first one we consider a TASEP-style system of particles with specified initial and final configurations. The probability of each history of the system is assumed to be equal. We show that…
Tomasetti and Vogelstein (2015a) find that the incidence of a set of cancer types is correlated with the total number of normal stem cell divisions. Here, we separate the effects of standing stem cell number (i.e., organ or tissue size) and…
Closed forms for $f_{\lambda,i} (q) := \sum_{\tau \in SYT(\lambda) : des(\tau) = i} q^{maj(\tau)}$, the distribution of the major index over standard Young tableaux of given shapes and specified number of descents, are established for a…
An old conjecture of Kahn and Saks says, roughly, that any poset $P$ of large enough width contains elements $x,y$ which are "balanced" in the sense that the probability that $x$ precedes $y$ in a uniformly random linear extension of $P$ is…
We compute the limit shapes of the Young diagrams of the minimal difference $p$ partitions and provide a simple physical interpretation for the limit shapes. We also calculate the asymptotic distribution of the largest part of the Young…
A Young diagram $Y$ is called wide if every sub-diagram $Z$ formed by a subset of the rows of $Y$ dominates $Z'$, the conjugate of $Z$. A Young diagram $Y$ is called Latin if its squares can be assigned numbers so that for each $i$, the…
We have known that most sequences in $\mathcal{M}=\{1,2,\dots, M\}$ with length $n$ will miss $Me^{-\lambda}$ of the total numbers of $\{1,2,\dots,M\}$ as the ratio $n/M$ tends to $\lambda$. Now we consider a more general case where the…
