While modern general-purpose computing systems have ample amounts of memory, it is still the case that embedded computer systems, such as in a refrigerator, are memory limited; hence, such embedded systems motivate the need for strictly…

We have extended classical pattern avoidance to a new structure: multiple task-precedence posets whose Hasse diagrams have three levels, which we will call diamonds. The vertices of each diamond are assigned labels which are compatible with…

The greedy Prefer-same de Bruijn sequence construction was first presented by Eldert et al.[AIEE Transactions 77 (1958)]. As a greedy algorithm, it has one major downside: it requires an exponential amount of space to store the length $2^n$…

When one inserts a number of identical bars in between blocks of an ordered set partition, they get a barred preferential arrangement. In this study we define a new generalization of barred preferential arrangements, by considering barred…

Our results can be viewed as applications of algebraic combinatorics in random matrix theory. These applications are motivated by the predictive power of random matrix theory for the statistical behavior of the celebrated Riemann…

Common intervals of K permutations over the same set of n elements were firstly investigated by T. Uno and M.Yagiura (Algorithmica, 26:290:309, 2000), who proposed an efficient algorithm to find common intervals when K=2. Several particular…

The motivation of this work is to define cohomology classes in the space of knots that are both easy to find and to evaluate, by reducing the problem to simple linear algebra. We achieve this goal by defining a combinatorial graded cochain…

The study of Mahonian statistics dated back to 1915 when MacMahon showed that the major index and the inverse number have the same distribution on a set of permutations with length n. Since then, many Mahonian statistics have been…

An archetypal problem discussed in computer science is the problem of searching for a given number in a given set of numbers. Other than sequential search, the classic solution is to sort the list of numbers and then apply binary search.…

Concentration results and probabilistic analysis for combinatorial problems like the TSP, MWST, graph coloring have received much attention, but generally, for i.i.d. samples (i.i.d. points in the unit square for the TSP, for example).…

In this work we introduce a quantum sorting algorithm with adaptable requirements of memory and circuit depth, and then use it to develop a new quantum version of the classical machine learning algorithm known as k-nearest neighbors (k-NN).…

We study sorting algorithms based on randomized round-robin comparisons. Specifically, we study Spin-the-bottle sort, where comparisons are unrestricted, and Annealing sort, where comparisons are restricted to a distance bounded by a…

In 1995, Ismail and Masson introduced orthogonal polynomials of types \( R_I \) and \( R_{II} \), which are defined by specific three-term recurrence relations with additional conditions. Recently, Kim and Stanton found a combinatorial…

A classical result of MacMahon states that inversion number and major index have the same distribution over permutations of a given multiset. In this work we prove a strengthening of this theorem originally conjectured by Haglund. Our…

This paper proposes new derivations of three well-known sorting algorithms, in their functional formulation. The approach we use is based on three main ingredients: first, the algorithms are derived from a simpler algorithm, i.e. the…

Though with progress, model learning and performing posterior inference still remains a common challenge for using deep generative models, especially for handling discrete hidden variables. This paper is mainly concerned with algorithms for…

We study the behavior of West's stack-sorting map $s$ on permutations whose last entry is also their least. Let $S_{n}':=\{\pi0\mid \pi\in S_n\}$ where $\pi0$ denotes the concatenation of $\pi$ and $0$. For each permutation $\pi\in S_n'$,…

We consider a bivariate polynomial that generalizes both the length and reflection length generating functions in a finite Coxeter group. In seeking a combinatorial description of the coefficients, we are led to the study of a new Mahonian…

Discrete random probability measures and the exchangeable random partitions they induce are key tools for addressing a variety of estimation and prediction problems in Bayesian inference. Indeed, many popular nonparametric priors, such as…

Many matching, tracking, sorting, and ranking problems require probabilistic reasoning about possible permutations, a set that grows factorially with dimension. Combinatorial optimization algorithms may enable efficient point estimation,…
