Distance-based approaches in phylogenetics such as Neighbor-Joining are a fast and popular approach for building trees. These methods take pairs of sequences from them construct a value that, in expectation, is additive under a stochastic…

For lattice paths in strips which begin at $(0,0)$ and have only up steps $U: (i,j) \rightarrow (i+1,j+1)$ and down steps $D: (i,j)\rightarrow (i+1,j-1)$, let $A_{n,k}$ denote the set of paths of length $n$ which start at $(0,0)$, end on…

Phylogenetic trees are binary nonplanar trees with labelled leaves, and plane oriented recursive trees are planar trees with an increasing labelling. Both families are enumerated by double factorials. A bijection is constructed, using the…

We introduce some classes of increasing labeled and multilabeled trees, and we show that these trees provide combinatorial interpretations for certain Thron-type continued fractions with coefficients that are quasi-affine of period 2. Our…

In this paper, we deal with the problem of bisecting binomial coefficients. We find many (previously unknown) infinite classes of integers which admit nontrivial bisections, and a class with only trivial bisections. As a byproduct of this…

We describe a combinatorial approach for investigating properties of rational numbers. The overall approach rests on structural bijections between rational numbers and familiar combinatorial objects, namely rooted trees. We emphasize that…

We define the (random) $k$-cut number of a rooted graph to model the difficulty of the destruction of a resilient network. The process is as the cut model of Meir and Moon except now a node must be cut $k$ times before it is destroyed. The…

It is well known that the set of $m$-Dyck paths with a fixed height and a fixed amount of valleys is counted by the Fu{\ss}-Narayana numbers. In this article, we consider the set of $m$-Dyck paths that start with at least $t$ north steps.…

We establish a bijective correspondence between Smirnov words with balanced letter multiplicities and Hamiltonian paths in complete $m$-partite graphs $K_{n,n,\ldots,n}$. This bijection allows us to derive closed inclusion-exclusion…

We consider polynomials of bi-degree $(n,1)$ over the skew field of quaternions where the indeterminates commute with each other and with all coefficients. Polynomials of this type do not generally admit factorizations. We recall a…

The combined work of Bousquet-M\'elou, Claesson, Dukes, Jel\'inek, Kitaev, Kubitzke and Parviainen has resulted in non-trivial bijections among ascent sequences, (2+2)-free posets, upper-triangular integer matrices, and pattern-avoiding…

We construct a bijection from permutations to some weighted Motzkin paths known as Laguerre histories. As one application of our bijection, a neat $q$-$\gamma$-positivity expansion of the $(\inv,\exc)$-$q$-Eulerian polynomials is obtained.

We study Motzkin paths of length $L$ with general weights on the edges and end points. We investigate the limit behavior of the initial and final segments of the random Motzkin path viewed as a pair of processes starting from each of the…

We establish an explicit combinatorial/homological characterization of supports for linear degenerations of flag varieties. For such purpose, we introduce the concept of an excessive multisegment. It provides a new class of combinatorial…

In this paper, we present an algorithm which allows us to search for all the bisections for the binomial coefficients $\{\binom{n}{k} \}_{k=0,...,n}$ and include a table with the results for all $n\le 154$. Connections with previous work on…

This paper explores the generalization loss of linear regression in variably parameterized families of models, both under-parameterized and over-parameterized. We show that the generalization curve can have an arbitrary number of peaks, and…

We consider the distribution of free path lengths, or the distance between consecutive bounces of random particles, in an n-dimensional rectangular box. If each particle travels a distance R, then, as R tends to infinity the free path…

In this note, we prove the existence of a limiting distribution of the free path lengths on flat surfaces with circular obstacles as the radius of the obstacles goes to zero. Moreover, we relate this distribution to the distribution of the…

Multi-edge trees as introduced in a recent paper of Dziemia\'nczuk are plane trees where multiple edges are allowed. We first show that $d$-ary multi-edge trees where the out-degrees are bounded by $d$ are in bijection with classical…

We derive the length and area generating function of planar height-restricted forward-moving discrete paths of increments +1, 0, or -1 with arbitrary starting and ending points, the so-called Motzkin meanders, and the more general…
