Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $\{0,1,2,...,n\}$. We allow $G$ to have multiple edges and loops. In this paper, we give a characterization of external activity by some parameters of $G$-parking functions. In particular, we…
Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…
We introduce bijections between families of rooted maps with unfixed genus and families of so-called blossoming trees endowed with an arbitrary forward matching of their leaves. We first focus on Eulerian maps with controlled vertex…
We find bijections on 2-distant noncrossing partitions, 12312-avoiding partitions, 3-Motzkin paths, UH-free Schr{\"o}der paths and Schr{\"o}der paths without peaks at even height. We also give a direct bijection between 2-distant…
Given a graph $G$, we define ${\bf bcg}(G)$ as the minimum $k$ for which $G$ can be contracted to the uniformly triangulated grid $\Gamma_{k}$. A graph class ${\cal G}$ has the SQG${\bf C}$ property if every graph $G\in{\cal G}$ has…
We elucidate a bijection between ribbon graphs on the real projective plane and non-crossing annular pairings that relate to the $1/N$ correction term of the GOE and LOE spectral moments. We also derive analogous objects for the $1/N^2$…
We consider descent data in cosimplicial crossed groupoids. This is a combinatorial abstraction of the descent data for gerbes in algebraic geometry. The main result is this: a weak equivalence between cosimplicial crossed groupoids induces…
We present an equivariant bijection between two actions--promotion and rowmotion--on order ideals in certain posets. This bijection simultaneously generalizes a result of R. Stanley concerning promotion on the linear extensions of two…
A bijection is constructed between two sets of height restricted lattice paths by means of translating them in two tree classe, namely plane trees and Elena trees. An old bijection between them can be used now for that actual problem.
A traversal of a connected graph is a linear ordering of its vertices all of whose initial segments induce connected subgraphs. Traversals, and their refinements such as breadth-first and depth-first traversals, are computed by various…
There is a large class of problems in algebraic combinatorics which can be distilled into the same challenge: construct an explicit combinatorial bijection. Traditionally, researchers have solved challenges like these by visually inspecting…
An arborescence, which is a directed analogue of a spanning tree in an undirected graph, is one of the most fundamental combinatorial objects in a digraph. In this paper, we study arborescences in digraphs from the viewpoint of…
For stacked simplicial complexes, (special subclasses of such are: trees, triangulations of polygons, stacked polytopes), we give an explicit bijection between partitions of facets (for trees: edges), and partitions of vertices into…
This paper contains a partial answer to the open problem 3.11 of \cite{[H2008]}. That is to find an explicit bijection on Schr\"oder paths that inverts the statistics area and bounce. This paper started as an attempt to write the sum over…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of finding {\it bisections} (i.e., balanced bipartitions) in graphs. We prove the following two results for {\it all} graphs $G$: (1). $G$ has a bisection where each vertex $v$ has at least $(1/4 -…
We introduce linear Dirac and generalized complex structures on Cartan geometries and give criteria for Dirac subalgebras of $\frkg\ltimes\frkg^*$ representing Dirac structures on a Cartan geometry. We prove that there is a bijection…
Given a system $\mathcal{G} =\{G_1,G_2,\dots,G_m\}$ of graphs/digraphs/hypergraphs on the common vertex set $V$ of size $n$, an $m$-edge graph/digraph/hypergraph $H$ on $V$ is transversal in $\mathcal{G}$ if there exists a bijection…
The number of spanning trees in a graph $G$ is the total number of distinct spanning subgraphs of $G$ that are trees. In this paper we characterize the unique graph with a prescribed vertex (resp. edge) connectivity, minimum degree and…
We present an analogue of the differential calculus in which the role of polynomials is played by certain ordered sets and trees. Our combinatorial calculus has all nice features of the usual calculus and has an advantage that the elements…
We present bijections enumerating (k,m)-trees, k-gon trees, edge labelled (2,1)-trees, and other tree-like structures. Our constructions are based on Foata's (1971) bijection for cycle-free functions, which is simplified here.
