We characterize the class of cycle decompositions that can achieve all Young tableau shapes (except the trivial ones with a single row or a single column) under the Robinson--Schensted--Knuth (RSK) correspondence, a property that we call…

We give a geometric interpretation of the Stanley--Reisner correspondence, extend it to schemes, and interpret it in terms of the field of one element.

Egecioglu and Remmel gave an interpretation for the entries of the inverse Kostka matrix K^{-1} in terms of special rim-hook tableaux. They were able to use this interpretation to give a combinatorial proof that KK^{-1}=I but were unable to…

The concept of pattern avoidance respectively containment in permutations can be extended to permutations on multisets in a straightforward way. In this note we present a direct proof of the already known fact that the well-known…

Let $\lambda=(\lambda_1 \geqslant \ldots \geqslant \lambda_k > 0)$. For any $c$ Coxeter element of $\mathfrak{S}_{\lambda_1+k-1}$, we construct a bijection from fillings of $\lambda$ to reverse plane partitions. We recover two previous…

In his paper, "On a Partition Function of Richard Stanley," George Andrews proves a certain partition identity analytically and asks for a combinatorial proof. This paper provides the requested combinatorial proof.

In 2015, Brosnan and Chow, and independently Guay-Paquet, proved the Shareshian-Wachs conjecture, which links the Stanley-Stembridge conjecture in combinatorics to the geometry of Hessenberg varieties through Tymoczko's permutation group…

To each permutation $\sigma$ in $S_{n}$ we associate a triangulation of a fixed $(n+2)$-gon. We then determine the fibers of this association and show that they coincide with the sylvester classes depicted By Novelli, Hivert and Thibon. A…

We study k-Schur functions characterized by k-tableaux, proving combinatorial properties such as a k-Pieri rule and a k-conjugation. This new approach relies on developing the theory of k-tableaux, and includes the introduction of a…

Combinatorial aspects of multivariate diagonal invariants of the symmetric group are studied. As a consequence it is proved the existence of a multivariate extension of the classical Robinson-Schensted correspondence. Further byproduct are…

In this paper we use algebraic curves and other algebraic number theory methods to show the validity of a permutation polynomial conjecture regarding $f(X)=X^{q(p-1)+1} +\alpha X^{pq}+X^{q+p-1}$, on finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{q^2}, q=p^k$,…

A locally uniform random permutation is generated by sampling $n$ points independently from some absolutely continuous distribution $\rho$ on the plane and interpreting them as a permutation by the rule that $i$ maps to $j$ if the $i$th…

We present a simple a bijection between permutations of $\{1,..., n\}$ with $k$ descents and permutation tableaux of length $n$ with $k$ columns.

This paper studies permutation tests for regression parameters in a time series setting, where the time series is assumed stationary but may exhibit an arbitrary (but weak) dependence structure. In such a setting, it is perhaps surprising…

Signatures of quadratic forms have been generalized to hermitian forms over algebras with involution. In the literature this is done via Morita theory, which causes sign ambiguities in certain cases. In this paper, a hermitian version of…

Using symmetric function theory, we study the cycle structure and increasing subsequence structure of permutations after various shuffling methods, emphasizing the role of Cauchy type identities and the Robinson-Schensted-Knuth…

We describe the limit (for two topologies) of large uniform random square permutations, i.e., permutations where every point is a record. The starting point for all our results is a sampling procedure for asymptotically uniform square…

In the seminal work of Stanley, several conjectures were made on the structure of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients for the multiplication of Jack symmetric functions. Motivated by recent results of Alexandersson and the present author, we…

We view the RSK correspondence as associating to each permutation $\pi \in S_n$ a Young diagram $\lambda=\lambda(\pi)$, i.e. a partition of $n$. Suppose now that $\pi$ is left-multiplied by $t$ transpositions, what is the largest number of…

The basic equations of physics involve a time variable t and are invariant under the transformation $t goes to -t$. This invariance at first sight appears to impose time reversibility as a principle of physics, in conflict with…
