  Asymptotic medians of random permutations sampled from reversal random walks
Jamshidpey A., Sankoff D. Theoretical Computer Science 698 9-13, 2017.  Type: Article

The area of application of this interesting, and quite advanced, five-page paper is in the study of genomics and chromosomal rearrangements. The median specified in the title “is a point whose sum of distances to k

  Counting and generating permutations in regular classes
Basset N. Algorithmica 76(4): 989-1034, 2016.  Type: Article

The signature of a permutation can be described in terms of two symbols that represent ascent and descent in the ordering of the elements. For each regular language (that can be recognized by a finite-state automaton) over those two sy...

  Odd permutations are nicer than even ones
Cori R., Marcus M., Schaeffer G. European Journal of Combinatorics 33(7): 1467-1478, 2012.  Type: Article

The set of all permutations on a finite set of n elements forms a group, with the composition of the permutations as the group operation. A permutation can be considered as a bijection (one-to-one correspondence) fro...

  Permutation patterns
Linton S., Ruskuc N., Vatter V., Cambridge University Press, New York, NY, 2010. 352 pp.  Type: Book (978-0-521728-34-8)

This book consists of papers from the Fifth International Conference on Permutation Patterns, held in 2007. The study of permutation patterns is a branch of combinatorics that finds applications in graph theory, model theory, automata ...

  Uncoverings-by-bases for base-transitive permutation groups
Bailey R. Designs, Codes and Cryptography 41(2): 153-176, 2006.  Type: Article

Permuting a codeword generates lists of strings that constitute bases of a permutation group. This paper is a portion (with amplification) of Bailey’s 2005 PhD mathematics dissertation, “Permutation Groups, Error Co...

  Solving Kirkman’s schoolgirl problem in a few seconds
Barnier N., Brisset P. Constraints 10(1): 7-21, 2005.  Type: Article

Symmetry maps solutions to solutions and nonsolutions to nonsolutions. Many constraint programming problems are highly symmetric. Symmetry in constraint programs can cause problems for an algorithm that searches a space of partial assi...

  Biplanes with flag-transitive automorphism groups of almost simple type, with alternating or sporadic socle
Regueiro E. European Journal of Combinatorics 26(5): 577-584, 2005.  Type: Article

A biplane is a (v, k, 2) design, that is, a structure of v points and v blocks such that every point belongs to exactly k blocks, and every ...

  Permutation statistics and the q, t-Catalan sequence
Loehr N. European Journal of Combinatorics 26(1): 83-93, 2005.  Type: Article

The Catalan numbers play a prominent role in combinatorics. Stanley’s book on enumerative combinatorics [1] lists over 95 collections of objects counted by the Catalan numbers. One of the collections of objects counted by the...

  Harmonic and gold Sturmian words
Carpi A., de Luca A. European Journal of Combinatorics 25(5): 685-705, 2004.  Type: Article

In this tour de force, the authors introduce two easily-defined proper subsets of the set PER of all finite words w on {a, b} having two relatively prime periods p

  Tile invariants: new horizons
Pak I. Theoretical Computer Science 303(2-3): 303-331, 2003.  Type: Article

The tiling problem can best be described by thinking of the problem of covering a checkerboard with dominoes. One can generalize the problem by allowing other shapes of the board, changing it to have infinite dimensions, allowing for h...
