We study generating functions for the number of permutations on n letters avoiding 132 and an arbitrary permutation $\tau$ on k letters, or containing $\tau$ exactly once. In several interesting cases the generating function depends only on…

We study generating functions for the number of involutions in $S_n$ avoiding (or containing once) 132, and avoiding (or containing once) an arbitrary permutation $\tau$ on $k$ letters. In several interesting cases the generating function…

We compute the generating function for the characters of the irreducible representations of SU(n) whose associated Young diagrams have only two rows with the same number of boxes. The result is a rational determinantal expression in which…

Let $S_n$ denote the group all permutations of $n$. For every permutation $\sigma$, we let $\mathrm{des}(\sigma)$ denote the number of descents in $\sigma$ and $\mathrm{LRMin}(\sigma)$ denote the number of left-to-right minima of $\sigma$.…

We prove that every proper subclass of the 321-avoiding permutations that is defined either by only finitely many additional restrictions or is well quasi-ordered has a rational generating function. To do so we show that any such class is…

We study the maximum multiplicity $\mathcal{M}(k,n)$ of a simple transposition $s_k=(k \: k+1)$ in a reduced word for the longest permutation $w_0=n \: n-1 \: \cdots \: 2 \: 1$, a problem closely related to much previous work on sorting…

We construct an injection from the set of permutations of length $n$ that contain exactly one copy of the decreasing pattern of length $k$ to the set of permutations of length $n+2$ that avoid that pattern. We then prove that the generating…

In this paper, we find an explicit formulas, or recurrences, in terms of generating functions for the cardinalities of the sets $S_n(T;\tau)$ of all permutations in $S_n$ that contain $\tau\in S_k$ exactly once and avoid a subset…

In this paper, we find explicit formulas or generating functions for the cardinalities of the sets $S_n(T,\tau)$ of all permutations in $S_n$ that avoid a pattern $\tau\in S_k$ and a set $T$, $|T|\geq 2$, of patterns from $S_3$. The main…

For permutations avoiding consecutive patterns from a given set, we present a combinatorial formula for the multiplicative inverse of the corresponding exponential generating function. The formula comes from homological algebra…

Let f_n^r(k) be the number of 132-avoiding permutations on n letters that contain exactly r occurrences of 12... k, and let F_r(x;k) and F(x,y;k) be the generating functions defined by $F_r(x;k)=\sum_{n\gs0} f_n^r(k)x^n$ and…

A \Def{composition} of a positive integer $n$ is a $k$-tuple $(\l_1, \l_2, \dots, \l_k) \in \Z_{> 0}^k$ such that $n = \l_1 + \l_2 + \dots + \l_k$. Our goal is to enumerate those compositions whose parts $\l_1, \l_2, \dots, \l_k$ avoid a…

Permutations avoiding all patterns of a given shape (in the sense of Robinson-Schensted-Knuth) are considered. We show that the shapes of all such permutations are contained in a suitable thick hook, and deduce an exponential growth rate…

This paper discusses the permutations that are generated by rotating $k \times k$ blocks of squares in a union of overlapping $k \times (k+1)$ rectangles. It is found that the single-rotation parity constraints effectively determine the…

This work introduces an explicit expression for the generation function for the reduction of an $n$-gon to an $(n-k)$-gon. A novel recursive relation of generation function is formulated based on Feynman Parametrization in projective space,…

Let G be a connected, semisimple Lie group with finite center and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. We investigate a method to compute multiplicities of K-types in the discrete series using a rational expression for a generating function…

We study generating functions for the number of even (odd) permutations on n letters avoiding 132 and an arbitrary permutation $\tau$ on k letters, or containing $\tau$ exactly once. In several interesting cases the generating function…

We prove that any class of permutations defined by avoiding a partially ordered pattern (POP) with height at most two has a regular insertion encoding and thus has a rational generating function. Then, we use Combinatorial Exploration to…

We bound the number of permutations with a fixed number $r$ of $321 \ominus p_0$ patterns by a constant times the number of permutations which avoid $321 \ominus p_0$. We use this new upper bound to show that the ordinary generating…

A permutation is said to be \emph{alternating} if it starts with rise and then descents and rises come in turn. In this paper we study the generating function for the number of alternating permutations on $n$ letters that avoid or contain…
