Fixed points of a random restricted growth sequence

Combinatorics 2021-06-25 v2

Abstract

We call ii a fixed point of a given sequence if the value of that sequence at the ii-th position coincides with ii. Here, we enumerate fixed points in the class of restricted growth sequences. The counting process is conducted by calculation of generating functions and leveraging a probabilistic sampling method.
