A base for a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $\Omega$ is a subset $\mathcal{B}$ of $\Omega$ such that the pointwise stabiliser $G_{(\mathcal{B})}$ is trivial. Let $n$ and $r$ be positive integers with $n>2r$. The symmetric and…

Given three positive integers $n,a,b$ with $n=ab$, we determine the base size of the symmetric group and of the alternating group of degree $n$ in their action on the set of partitions into $b$ parts having cardinality $a$.

Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabilizer is trivial; the base size of $G$ is the minimal cardinality of a base. In this paper we initiate the study of bases for…

A base for a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $\Omega$ is a sequence $\mathcal{B}$ of points of $\Omega$ such that the pointwise stabiliser $G_{\mathcal{B}}$ is trivial. The base size of $G$ is the size of a smallest base for $G$. We…

We study the natural action of $S_n$ on the set of $k$-subsets of the set $\{1,\dots, n\}$ when $1\leq k \leq \frac{n}{2}$. For this action we calculate the maximum size of a minimal base, the height and the maximum length of an irredundant…

A base for a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $\Omega$ is a sequence $\mathcal{B}$ of points of $\Omega$ such that the pointwise stabiliser $G_{\mathcal{B}}$ is trivial. The base size of $G$ is the size of a smallest base for $G$.…

We compute the cycle index sum of the symmetric group action on the homology of the configuration spaces of points in a Euclidean space with the condition that no $k$ of them are equal.

The aim of this paper is to derive explicit formulas for two distinct values. The first is the total number of symmetric peaks in a set partition of $[n]$ with exactly $k$ blocks, and the second one is the total number of non-symmetric…

Let G be a permutation group, acting on a set \Omega of size n. A subset B of \Omega is a base for G if the pointwise stabilizer G_(B) is trivial. Let b(G) be the minimal size of a base for G. A subgroup G of Sym(n) is large base if there…

It is shown that the counting function of n Boolean variables can be implemented with the formulae of size O(n^3.06) over the basis of all 2-input Boolean functions and of size O(n^4.54) over the standard basis. The same bounds follow for…

Given a finite group $R$, we investigate the base size of the action of the automorphism group of $R$ on the lattice of subgroups of $R$. Our main result shows that this base size is $1$ if and only if $R$ is cyclic. Our motivation arises…

A composition $\pi=\pi_1\pi_2\cdots\pi_k$ of a positive integer $n$ is an ordered collection of one or more positive integers whose sum is $n$ . The number of summands, namely $k$, is called the number of parts of $\pi$. In this paper, we…

Let $G \leqslant {\rm Sym}(\Omega)$ be a finite almost simple primitive permutation group, with socle $G_0$ and point stabilizer $H$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabilizer is trivial; the base size of $G$,…

We give a detailed analysis of the proportion of elements in the symmetric group on $n$ points whose order divides $m$, for $n$ sufficiently large and $m \ge n$ with $m = O(n)$.

Let G be a linear group acting on the finite vector space V and assume that (|G|,|V|)=1. In this paper we prove that G has a base size at most two and this estimate is sharp. This generalizes and strengthens several former results…

For a large integer $m,$ we obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of solutions of a certain congruence modulo $m$ with four variables, where the variables belong to special sets of residue classes modulo $m.$ This formula are applied…

Let $G$ be a finite primitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$ with point stabiliser $H$. Recall that a subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabiliser is trivial. We define the base size of $G$, denoted $b(G,H)$, to be…

An irredundant base of a group $G$ acting faithfully on a finite set $\Gamma$ is a sequence of points in $\Gamma$ that produces a strictly descending chain of pointwise stabiliser subgroups in $G$, terminating at the trivial subgroup.…

A base B for a finite permutation group G acting on a set X is a subset of X with the property that only the identity of G can fix every point of B. We prove that a primitive diagonal group G has a base of size 2 unless the top group of G…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a sequence of $rk$ terms which is made up of $k$ distinct integers each appearing exactly $r$ times in $\mathcal{A}$. The sum of all terms of a subsequence of $\mathcal{A}$ is called a subsequence sum of $\mathcal{A}$.…
