In this work we obtain recurrent formulae for the number of permutations with either increasing or monotonic (i.e., both increasing and decreasing) runs of bounded length. Our formulae allow one to efficiently compute the number of such…

We consider the set of permutations that are sorted after two passes through a pop stack. We characterize these permutations in terms of forbidden patterns (classical and barred) and enumerate them according to the ascent statistic. Then we…

We investigate the structure of the higher genus topological string amplitudes on the quintic hypersurface. It is shown that the partition functions of the higher genus than one can be expressed as polynomials of five generators. We also…

We characterize separable multidimensional permutations in terms of forbidden patterns and enumerate them by means of generating function, recursive formula and explicit formula. We find a connection between multidimensional permutations…

Motivated by juggling sequences and bubble sort, we examine permutations on the set {1,2,...,n} with d descents and maximum drop size k. We give explicit formulas for enumerating such permutations for given integers k and d. We also derive…

We study the crossing-minimization problem in a layered graph drawing of planar-embedded rooted trees whose leaves have a given total order on the first layer, which adheres to the embedding of each individual tree. The task is then to…

A permutation is said to be a square if it can be obtained by shuffling two order-isomorphic patterns. The definition is intended to be the natural counterpart to the ordinary shuffle of words and languages. In this paper, we tackle the…

We present a natural extension of Andrews' multiple sums counting partitions with difference 2 at distance $k-1$, by deriving the generating function for $K$-restricted jagged partitions. A jagged partition is a collection of non-negative…

A permutation is simsun if for all k, the subword of the one-line notation consisting of the k smallest entries does not have three consecutive decreasing elements. Simsun permutations were introduced by Simion and Sundaram, who showed that…

In this paper, we study the problem of multivariate shuffled linear regression, where the correspondence between predictors and responses in a linear model is obfuscated by a latent permutation. Specifically, we investigate the model…

We use the generating function of the characters of $C_2$ to obtain a generating function for the multiplicities of the weights entering in the irreducible representations of that simple Lie algebra. From this generating function we derive…

Given a permutation $\pi\in \Sn\_n$, construct a graph $G\_\pi$ on the vertex set $\{1,2, ..., n\}$ by joining $i$ to $j$ if (i) $i<j$ and $\pi(i)<\pi(j)$ and (ii) there is no $k$ such that $i < k < j$ and $\pi(i)<\pi(k)<\pi(j)$. We say…

To flatten a set partition (with apologies to Mathematica) means to form a permutation by erasing the dividers between its blocks. Of course, the result depends on how the blocks are listed. For the usual listing--increasing entries in each…

Let $\mathbf a=(a_1,\ldots,a_r)$ be a sequence of positive integers and $k\geq 2$ an integer. We study $p_{k,\mathbf a}(n)$, the restricted $k$-multipartition function associated to $\mathbf a$ and $k$. We prove new formulas for…

We find exact formulas and/or generating functions for the number of words avoiding 3-letter generalized multipermutation patterns and find which of them are equally avoided.

Orthogonal polynomials satisfy a recurrence relation of order two, where appear two coefficients. If we modify one of these coefficients at a certain order, we obtain a perturbed orthogonal sequence. In this work we consider in this way…

We find the exponential generating function for permutations with all valleys even and all peaks odd, and use it to determine the asymptotics for its coefficients, answering a question posed by Liviu Nicolaescu. The generating function can…

In this article we consider square permutations, a natural subclass of permutations defined in terms of geometric conditions, that can also be described in terms of pattern avoiding permutations, and convex permutoninoes, a related subclass…

We introduce and study a new notion of patterns in Stirling and $k$-Stirling permutations, which we call block patterns. We prove a general result which allows us to compute generating functions for the occurrences of various block patterns…

Four recursive constructions of permutation polynomials over $\gf(q^2)$ with those over $\gf(q)$ are developed and applied to a few famous classes of permutation polynomials. They produce infinitely many new permutation polynomials over…
