Combinatorics of permutations

M Bóna - ACM SIGACT News, 2008 - dl.acm.org
Any permutation of ordered n-element set [n]=:{1,..., n} may be regarded as introducing a
(possibly null) measure of disorder to that set. For example, the natural order of [7] is …

Permutation classes

V Vatter - Handbook of enumerative combinatorics, 2015 - api.taylorfrancis.com
Hints of the study of patterns in permutations date back a century, to Volume I, Section III,
Chapter V of MacMahon's 1915 magnum opus Combinatory Analysis [126]. In that work …

Finding small patterns in permutations in linear time

S Guillemot, D Marx - Proceedings of the twenty-fifth annual ACM-SIAM …, 2014 - SIAM
Given two permutations σ and π, the Permutation Pattern problem asks if σ is a subpattern of
π. We show that the problem can be solved in time 2 O (ℓ 2 log ℓ). n, where ℓ=| σ| and n=| π …

[HTML][HTML] The shape of random pattern-avoiding permutations

S Miner, I Pak - Advances in Applied Mathematics, 2014 - Elsevier
We initiate the study of limit shapes for random permutations avoiding a given pattern.
Specifically, for patterns of length 3, we obtain delicate results on the asymptotics of …

Combinatorial generation via permutation languages

E Hartung, HP Hoang, T Mütze, A Williams - Proceedings of the Fourteenth …, 2020 - SIAM
In this work we present a general and versatile algorithmic framework for exhaustively
generating a large variety of different combinatorial objects, based on encoding them as …

Local convergence for permutations and local limits for uniform -avoiding permutations with

J Borga - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2020 - Springer
We set up a new notion of local convergence for permutations and we prove a
characterization in terms of proportions of consecutive pattern occurrences. We also …

Fixed points and excedances in restricted permutations

S Elizalde - the electronic journal of combinatorics, 2011 - combinatorics.org
Using an unprecedented technique involving diagonals of non-rational generating functions,
we prove that among the permutations of length $ n $ with $ i $ fixed points and $ j …

Further refinements of Wilf-equivalence for patterns of length 4

RDP Zhou, Y Zang, SHF Yan - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 2024 - Elsevier
In this paper, we construct a bijection between 3142-avoiding permutations and 3241-
avoiding permutations which proves the equidistribution of five classical set-valued statistics …

Polyurethane toggles

C Defant - arXiv preprint arXiv:1904.06283, 2019 - arxiv.org
We consider the involutions known as" toggles," which have been used to give simplified
proofs of the fundamental properties of the promotion and evacuation maps. We transfer …
