Compositions of Integers with Bounded Parts

چکیده
In this note, we consider ordered partitions of integers such that each entry is no more than a fixed portion of the sum. We give a method for constructing all such compositions as well as both an explicit formula and a generating function describing the number of k-tuples whose entries are bounded in this way and sum to a fixed value g.

Composition of Integers with Bounded Parts
In this note, we consider ordered partitions of integers such that each entry is no more than a fixed portion of the sum. We give a method for constructing all such compositions as well as both an explicit formula and a generating function describing the number of k-tuples whose entries are bounded in this way and sum to a fixed value g.

متن کاملRestricted compositions and permutations: From old to new Gray codes
Any Gray code for a set of combinatorial objects defines a total order relation on this set: x is less than y if and only if y occurs after x in the Gray code list. Let ≺ denote the order relation induced by the classical Gray code for the product set (the natural extension of the Binary Reflected Gray Code to k-ary tuples). The restriction of ≺ to the set of compositions and bounded compositio...
متن کاملCounting l-letter subwords in compositions
Let N be the set of all positive integers and let A be any ordered subset of N. Recently, Heubach and Mansour enumerated the number of compositions of n with m parts in A that contain the subword τ exactly r times, where τ ∈ {111, 112, 221, 123}. Out aims are (1) to generalize the above results, i.e., to enumerate the number of compositions of n with m parts in A that contain an l-letter subwor...
متن کاملEnumerating Segmented Patterns in Compositions and Encoding by Restricted Permutations
A composition of a nonnegative integer n is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is n. A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of occurrences of arbitrary segmented partially ordered patterns among compositions of n with a prescribed number of parts. These patterns generalize the notions of ri...
متن کاملCounting `-letter subwords in compositions
Let N be the set of all positive integers and let A be any ordered subset of N. Recently, Heubach and Mansour enumerated the number of compositions of nwithm parts inA that contain the subword τ exactly r times, where τ ∈ {111, 112, 221, 123}. Our aims are (1) to generalize the above results, i.e., to enumerate the number of compositions of n with m parts in A that contain an `-letter subword, ...
