چکیده

En hommagè a Pierre Rosenstiehl, Lui, qui dirige avec grand style, Ce journal de combinatoire, Mais sait aussì a l'occasion Nous raconter une belle histoire: Fil d'Ariane et boustrophédon. Abstract. This Seidel Triangle Sequence Calculus makes it possible to derive several three-variate generating functions, in particular for the Bi-Entringer numbers, which count the alternating permutations according to their lengths, first and last letters. The paper has been motivated by this suprising observation: the number of alternating permutations, whose last letter has a prescribed value and is greater than its first letter, is equal to the Poupard number.

A New Operation on Sequences: The Boustrophedon Transform

A generalization of the Seidel-Entringer-Arnold method for calculating the alternating permutation numbers (or secant-tangent numbers) leads to a new operation on sequences, the boustrophedon transform. This paper was published (in a somewhat different form) in J. Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 76 (1996), pp. 44–54. Present address: Mathematics Department, MIT, Cambridge, MA Present address: A...

Evaluation of Bi-objective Scheduling Problems by FDH, Distance and Triangle Methods

In this paper, two methods named distance and triangle methods are extended to evaluate the quality of approximation of the Pareto set from solving bi-objective problems. In order to use evaluation methods, a bi-objective problem is needed to define. It is considered the problem of scheduling jobs in a hybrid flow shop environment with sequence-dependent setup times and the objectives of minimi...

Bijections for Entringer families

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 ga...
