Simple permutations and algebraic generating functions

چکیده
A simple permutation is one that does not map a nontrivial interval onto an interval. It was recently proved by Albert and Atkinson that a permutation class with only finitely simple permutations has an algebraic generating function. We extend this result to enumerate permutations in such a class satisfying additional properties, e.g., the even permutations, the involutions, the permutations avoiding generalised permutations, and so on.

Probability Generating Functions for Sattolo’s Algorithm
In 1986 S. Sattolo introduced a simple algorithm for uniform random generation of cyclic permutations on a fixed number of symbols. Recently, H. Prodinger analysed two important random variables associated with the algorithm, and found their mean and variance. H. Mahmoud extended Prodinger’s analysis by finding limit laws for the same two random variables.The present article, starting from the ...
متن کاملFour Classes of Pattern-Avoiding Permutations Under One Roof: Generating Trees with Two Labels
Many families of pattern-avoiding permutations can be described by a generating tree in which each node carries one integer label, computed recursively via a rewriting rule. A typical example is that of 123-avoiding permutations. The rewriting rule automatically gives a functional equation satisfied by the bivariate generating function that counts the permutations by their length and the label ...
متن کاملSimple permutations: Decidability and unavoidable substructures
Simple permutations are the building blocks of permutation classes. As such, classes with only finitely many simple permutations, e.g., the class of 132-avoiding permutations, have nice properties. To name three: these classes have algebraic generating functions (as established by Albert and Atkinson [1]; see Brignall, Huczynska, and Vatter [9] for extensions), are partially well-ordered (see t...
متن کاملDeciding the finiteness of simple permutations contained in a wreath-closed class is polynomial∗
In [8], D. Knuth introduced pattern avoiding permutation classes. Theses classes present nice combinatorial properties, for example 231 avoiding permutations are in one-to-one correspondence with Dyck words. It is then natural to extend this enumerative result to all classes and compute, given B a set of permutations, the generating function S(x) = ∑ snx n where sn is the number of permutations...
متن کاملSimple permutations and pattern restricted permutations
A simple permutation is one that does not map any non-trivial interval onto an interval. It is shown that, if the number of simple permutations in a pattern restricted class of permutations is finite, the class has an algebraic generating function and is defined by a finite set of restrictions. Some partial results on classes with an infinite number of simple permutations are given. Examples of...
