A sequence of reversals that takes a signed permutation to the identity is perfect if it preserves all common intervals between the permutation and the identity. The problem of com...
Any span n sequences can be regarded as filtering sequences. From this observation, new randomness criteria for span n sequences are proposed. It is proved that the feedback funct...
Generalizing the notion of placing rooks on a Ferrers board leads to a new class of combinatorial models and a new class of rook polynomials. Connections are establishedwith absolu...
We describe an algorithm for finding a canonical image of a set of points under the action of a permutation group. Specifically if we order images by sorting them and ordering t...
We consider the problem of a search engine trying to assign a sequence of search keywords to a set of competing bidders, each with a daily spending limit. The goal is to maximize ...
