For a digraph D and three parameters x, y, z in {0,1,+,-} we define the digraph D^(x,y,z) and call it the (x,y,z)-transformation of D. We show that for every r-regular digraph D the adjacency characteristic polynomial A(t, D^(x,y,z)) of…
It is a well known that, for odd $n$, the number of subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ the sum of whose elements is divisible by $n$ equals the number of binary necklaces of length $n$. In this paper generalize this result in two directions. On…
Let $\sigma$ and $\tau$ be patterns of length three; that is $\sigma, \tau \in \{123,132,213,231,312,321\}$. In this paper, we enumerate the set of cyclic permutations in $\mathcal{S}_n$ that avoid $\sigma$ in their one-line notation and…
A general explicit upper bound is obtained for the proportion $P(n,m)$ of elements of order dividing $m$, where $n-1 \le m \le cn$ for some constant $c$, in the finite symmetric group $S_n$. This is used to find lower bounds for the…
A connected graph $\G$ is called {\em nicely distance--balanced}, whenever there exists a positive integer $\gamma=\gamma(\G)$, such that for any two adjacent vertices $u,v$ of $\G$ there are exactly $\gamma$ vertices of $\G$ which are…
In this paper we study the cycle descent statistic on permutations. Several involutions on permutations and derangements are constructed. Moreover, we construct a bijection between negative cycle descent permutations and Callan perfect…
For nonempty sets $A,B$ of nonnegative integers and an integer $n$, let $r_{A,B}(n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as $a+b$ and $d_{A,B}(n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ as $a-b$, where $a\in A, b\in B$. In this paper,…
This paper is devoted to the description of the interval of parameters for which the general linear $n^{\rm th}$-order equation \begin{equation} \label{e-Ln} T_n[M]\,u(t) \equiv u^{(n)}(t)+a_1(t)\, u^{(n-1)}(t)+\cdots +a_{n-1}(t)\,…
In combinatorics, a derangement is a permutation of the elements of a set, such that no element appears in its original position. The number of derangement of an n-element set is called the nth derangement number. Recently, the degenerate…
A permutation array(or code) of length $n$ and distance $d$, denoted by $(n,d)$ PA, is a set of permutations $C$ from some fixed set of $n$ elements such that the Hamming distance between distinct members $\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y}\in C$ is at…
For positive integers m and r, one can easily show there exist integers N such that for every map D:{1,2,...,N} -> {1,2,...,r} there exist 2m integers x_1 < ... < x_m < y_1 < ... < y_m which satisfy: (a) D(x_1) = ... = D(x_m), (b) D(y_1) =…
The descent set D(w) of a permutation w of 1,2,...,n is a standard and well-studied statistic. We introduce a new statistic, the connectivity set C(w), and show that it is a kind of dual object to D(w). The duality is stated in terms of the…
A universal cycle for permutations is a word of length n! such that each of the n! possible relative orders of n distinct integers occurs as a cyclic interval of the word. We show how to construct such a universal cycle in which only n+1…
In this paper, we define the deformed Euler $(s,t)$-numbers ${\rm e}_{s,t,u}$ Furthermore, we prove that ${\rm e}_{as,a^2t,u^{-1}}$ and ${\rm e}_{as,a^2t,u^{-1}}^{-1}$ are irrational numbers when $a,u\in\mathbb{Q}$ and $\vert au\vert>1$,…
It is known that the number of permutations in the symmetric group $S_{2n}$ with cycles of odd lengths only is equal to the number of permutations with cycles of even lengths only. We prove a refinement of this equality, involving descent…
It is well known that the derangement numbers $d_n$, which count permutations of length $n$ with no fixed points, satisfy the recurrence $d_n=nd_{n-1}+(-1)^n$ for $n\ge1$. Combinatorial proofs of this formula have been given by Remmel,…
In this note we count linear arrangements that avoid certain patterns and show their connection to the derangement numbers. We discuss the sequence Dn, which counts linear arrangements that avoid patterns 12, 23, ..., (n-1)n, n1, and show…
The circular descent of a permutation $\sigma$ is a set $\{\sigma(i)\mid \sigma(i)>\sigma(i+1)\}$. In this paper, we focus on the enumerations of permutations by the circular descent set. Let $cdes_n(S)$ be the number of permutations of…
We present an infinite set of higher equations of motion in N=2 supersymmetric Liouville field theory. They are in one to one correspondence with the degenerate representations and are enumerated in addition to the U(1) charge \omega by the…
We propose a new structure ${\cal U}^{r}_{\displaystyle{q}}(sl(2)) $. This is realized by multiplying $\delta$ ($q=e^{\delta}$, $\delta\in \CC$) by $\theta$, where $\theta$ is a real nilpotent -paragrassmannian- variable of order $r$…
