In chemistry, Cyvin-Gutman enumerates Kekul\'{e} numbers for certain benzenoids and record it as $A050446$ on OEIS. This number is exactly the two variable array $T(n,m)$ defined by the recursion $T(n, m) = T(n, m-1) +…
For a fixed integer $m\ge 1$, let $\mathcal{A}_n^{(m)}$ be the set of permutations $\pi\in S_n$ that avoid the pattern $132$ and satisfy the adjacency bound $|\pi_{i+1}-\pi_i|\le m$ for all $i$. Here, a pattern $132$ means three indices…
We consider the question of computing the distribution of a permutation statistics over restricted permutations via enumeration schemes. The restricted permutations are those avoiding sets of vincular patterns (which include both classical…
Non-crossing and non-nesting permutations are variations of the well-known Stirling permutations. A permutation $\pi$ on $\{1,1,2,2,\ldots, n,n\}$ is called non-crossing if it avoids the crossing patterns $\{1212,2121\}$ and is called…
Ouroboros functions have shown some interesting properties when subjected to conventional operations. The aim of this paper is to continue our investigation and prove some additional properties of these functions. Using algebraic methods,…
This paper presents a collection of experimental results regarding permutation pattern avoidance, focusing on cases where there are "many" patterns to be avoided.
A wide range of applications, most notably in comparative genomics, involve the computation of a shortest sorting sequence of operations for a given permutation, where the set of allowed operations is fixed beforehand. Such sequences are…
We define a map between the set of permutations that avoid either the four patterns $3214,3241,4213,4231$ or $3124,3142,4123,4132$, and the set of Dyck prefixes. This map, when restricted to either of the two classes, turns out to be a…
Some new bounds for the Chebychev functional of a pair of vectors in inner product spaces are pointed out. Reverses for the celebrated Jensen's inequality for convex functions defined on inner product spaces are given as well.
We introduce a new concept of permutation avoidance pattern called hatted pattern, which is a natural generalization of the barred pattern. We show the growth rate of the class of permutations avoiding a hatted pattern in comparison to…
In this paper we explore the theory of fractional powers of non-negative (and not necessarily self-adjoint) operators and its amazing relationship with the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind to obtain results of existence, regularity…
For any $k\geq 1$, this paper studies the number of polynomials having $k$ irreducible factors (counted with or without multiplicities) in $\mathbf{F}_q[t]$ among different arithmetic progressions. We obtain asymptotic formulas for the…
We prove a generalization of a conjecture of Dokos, Dwyer, Johnson, Sagan, and Selsor giving a recursion for the inversion polynomial of 321-avoiding permutations. We also answer a question they posed about finding a recursive formulas for…
In this paper we propose a notion of pattern avoidance in binary trees that generalizes the avoidance of contiguous tree patterns studied by Rowland and non-contiguous tree patterns studied by Dairyko, Pudwell, Tyner, and Wynn.…
In this paper we give a bijection between the class of permutations that can be drawn on an X-shape and a certain set of permutations that appears in [Knuth] in connection to sorting algorithms. A natural generalization of this set leads us…
The Gelfand representation of $\mathcal{S}_n$ is the multiplicity-free direct sum of the irreducible representations of $\mathcal{S}_n$. In this paper, we use a result of Adin, Postnikov, and Roichman to find a recursive generating function…
Shallow permutations were defined in 1977 to be those that satisfy the lower bound of the Diaconis-Graham inequality. Recently, there has been renewed interest in these permutations. In particular, Berman and Tenner showed they satisfy…
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 study how often exceptional configurations of irreducible polynomials over finite fields occur in the context of prime number races and Chebyshev's bias. In particular, we show that three types of biases, which we call "complete bias",…
The extension of pattern avoidance from ordinary permutations to those on multisets gave birth to several interesting enumerative results. We study permutations on regular multisets, i.e., multisets in which each element occurs the same…
