      The classic derangement question of counting the number of derangements for n objects from some initial permutation of the objects was first considered by de Montfort in 1708. A particular recasting of a permutation allows ...
    • Kostic, Dimitrije Nenad (2009-05-15)
      Parking functions have been a focus of mathematical research since the mid-1970s. Various generalizations have been introduced since the mid-1990s and deep relationships between these and other areas of mathematics have ...

      Symmetry of monotone sequences arise in many combinatorial structures, the classical examples being inversions and coinversions in permutations. Another example is crossings and nestings in matchings, partitions and ...

      A parking function can be thought of as a sequence of n drivers, each with a preferred parking space, wanting to park along a one-way street with n parking spaces. Each driver checks her preferred parking space and, if it ...

      The interplay of algebra and combinatorics is fruitful in both fields: combinatorics provides algebraic structures with tractable realizations, while algebra underpins combinatorial objects with a rigorous framework. ...
