A major index for matchings and set partitions

چکیده
We introduce a statistic pmaj(P ) for partitions of [n], and show that it is equidistributed with cr2, the number of 2-crossings, over all partitions of [n] with given sets of minimal block elements and maximal block elements. This generalizes the classical result of equidistribution for the permutation statistics inv and maj. © 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Global Forcing Number for Maximal Matchings under Graph Operations
Let $S= \{e_1,\,e_2, \ldots,\,e_m\}$ be an ordered subset of edges of a connected graph $G$. The edge $S$-representation of an edge set $M\subseteq E(G)$ with respect to $S$ is the vector $r_e(M|S) = (d_1,\,d_2,\ldots,\,d_m)$, where $d_i=1$ if $e_i\in M$ and $d_i=0$ otherwise, for each $i\in\{1,\ldots , k\}$. We say $S$ is a global forcing set for maximal matchings of $G$ if $...
متن کاملk-DISTANT CROSSINGS AND NESTINGS OF MATCHINGS AND PARTITIONS
We define and consider k-distant crossings and nestings for matchings and set partitions, which are a variation of crossings and nestings in which the distance between vertices is important. By modifying an involution of Kasraoui and Zeng (Electronic J. Combinatorics 2006, research paper 33), we show that the joint distribution of k-distant crossings and nestings is symmetric. We also study the...
متن کاملDistribution of Crossings, Nestings and Alignments of Two Edges in Matchings and Partitions
We construct an involution on set partitions which keeps track of the numbers of crossings, nestings and alignments of two edges. We derive then the symmetric distribution of the numbers of crossings and nestings in partitions, which generalizes a recent result of Klazar and Noy in perfect matchings. By factorizing our involution through bijections between set partitions and some path diagrams ...
متن کاملPattern Avoidance in Matchings and Partitions
Extending the notion of pattern avoidance in permutations, we study matchings and set partitions whose arc diagram representation avoids a given configuration of three arcs. These configurations, which generalize 3-crossings and 3-nestings, have an interpretation, in the case of matchings, in terms of patterns in full rook placements on Ferrers boards. We enumerate 312-avoiding matchings and pa...
متن کاملStirling number of the fourth kind and lucky partitions of a finite set
The concept of Lucky k-polynomials and in particular Lucky χ-polynomials was recently introduced. This paper introduces Stirling number of the fourth kind and Lucky partitions of a finite set in order to determine either the Lucky k- or Lucky χ-polynomial of a graph. The integer partitions influence Stirling partitions of the second kind.
