Euler-Mahonian triple set-valued statistics on permutations

In a recent paper, Goyt and Sagan studied distributions of certain set partition statistics over pattern restricted sets of set partitions that were counted by the Fibonacci numbers. Their study produced a class of $q$-Fibonacci numbers, which they related to $q$-Fibonacci numbers studied by Carlitz and Cigler. In this paper we will study the distributions of some Mahonian statistics over pattern restricted sets of permutations. We will give bijective proofs connecting some o...

In a recent paper, Regev and Roichman introduced the <_L order and the L-descent number statistic, des_L, on the group of colored permutations, C_a \wr S_n. Here we define the L-reverse major index statistic, rmaj_L, on the same group and study the distribution of des_L and the bi-statistic (des_L, rmaj_L). We obtain new wreath-product analogues of the Eulerian and q-Euler-Mahonian polynomials, and a generalization of Carlitz's identity.

Two well known mahonian statistics on words are the inversion number and the major index. In 1996, Foata and Zeilberger introduced generalizations, parameterized by relations, of these statistics. In this paper, we study the statistics which can be written as a sum of these generalized statistics. This leads to generalizations of some classical results. In particular, we characterize all such statistics which are mahonian.

Visontai conjectured in 2013 that the joint distribution of ascent and distinct nonzero value numbers on the set of subexcedant sequences is the same as that of descent and inverse descent numbers on the set of permutations. This conjecture has been proved by Aas in 2014, and the generating function of the corresponding bistatistics is the double Eulerian polynomial. Among the techniques used by Aas are the M\"obius inversion formula and isomorphism of labeled rooted trees. I...

We provide combinatorial interpretation for the $\gamma$-coefficients of the basic Eulerian polynomials that enumerate permutations by the excedance statistic and the major index as well as the corresponding $\gamma$-coefficients for derangements. Our results refine the classical $\gamma$-positivity results for the Eulerian polynomials and the derangement polynomials. The main tools are Br\"and\'en's modified Foata--Strehl action on permutations and the recent triple statisti...

We introduce and study new refinements of inversion statistics for permutations, such as k-step inversions, (the number of inversions with fixed position differences) and non-inversion sums (the sum of the differences of positions of the non-inversions of a permutation). We also provide a distribution function for non-inversion sums, a distribution function for k-step inversions that relates to the Eulerian polynomials, and special cases of distribution functions for other st...

The motivation of this paper is to investigate the joint distribution of succession and Eulerian statistics. We first investigate the enumerators for the joint distribution of descents, big ascents and successions over all permutations in the symmetric group. As an generalization a result of Diaconis-Evans-Graham (Adv. in Appl. Math., 61 (2014), 102-124), we show that two triple set-valued statistics of permutations are equidistributed on symmetric groups. We then introduce t...

For a permutation $\pi$ the major index of $\pi$ is the sum of all indices $i$ such that $\pi_i > \pi_{i+1}$. It is well known that the major index is equidistributed with the number of inversions over all permutations of length $n$. In this paper, we study the distribution of the major index over pattern-avoiding permutations of length $n$. We focus on the number $M_n^m(\Pi)$ of permutations of length $n$ with major index $m$ and avoiding the set of patterns $\Pi$. First w...

We introduce a family of quasisymmetric functions called {\em Eulerian quasisymmetric functions}, which have the property of specializing to enumerators for the joint distribution of the permutation statistics, major index and excedance number on permutations of fixed cycle type. This family is analogous to a family of quasisymmetric functions that Gessel and Reutenauer used to study the joint distribution of major index and descent number on permutations of fixed cycle type....

We introduce a statistic $\pmaj$ on partitions of $[n]=\{1,2,..., n\}$, and show that it is equidistributed with the number of 2-crossings over 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 inversion number and major index.
