Bijections for Entringer families
نویسندگان
چکیده
André proved that the number of alternating permutations on {1, 2, ..., n} is equal to the Euler number En. A refinement of André’s result was given by Entringer, who proved that counting alternating permutations according to the first element gives rise to Seidel’s triangle (En,k) for computing the Euler numbers. In a series of papers, using generating function method and induction, Poupard gave several further combinatorial interpretations for En,k both in alternating permutations and increasing trees. Kuznetsov, Pak, and Postnikov have given more combinatorial interpretations of En,k in the model of trees. The aim of this paper is to provide bijections between the different models for En,k as well as some new interpretations. In particular, we give the first explicit one-to-one correspondence between Entringer’s alternating permutation model and Poupard’s increasing tree model.

On Two Infinite Families of Pairing Bijections
We describe two general mechanisms for producing pairing bijections (bijective functions defined from N2 → N). The first mechanism, using n-adic valuations results in parameterized algorithms generating a countable family of distinct pairing bijections. The second mechanism, using characteristic functions of subsets of N provides 2N distinct pairing bijections. Mechanisms to combine such pairin...
متن کاملInterval Reductions and Extensions of Orders: Bijections to Chains in Lattices
We discuss bijections that relate families of chains in lattices associated to an order P and families of interval orders deened on the ground set of P. Two bijections of this type have been known: (1) The bijection between maximal chains in the antichain lattice A(P) and the linear extensions of P. (2) A bijection between maximal chains in the lattice of maximal antichains A M (P) and minimal ...

We establish natural bijections between three different classes of combinatorial objects; namely certain families of locally 2–arc transitive graphs, partial linear spaces, and homogeneous factorisations of arc-transitive graphs. Moreover, the bijections intertwine the actions of the relevant automorphism groups. Thus constructions in any of these areas provide examples for the others.
متن کاملLattice paths , re ections , & dimension - changing bijectionsRichard
We enumerate various families of planar lattice paths consisting of unit steps in directions N, S, E, or W, which do not cross the x-axis or both x-and y-axes. The proofs are purely combinatorial throughout, using either reeections or bijections between these NSEW-paths and linear NS-paths. We also consider other dimension-changing bijections.
