Let α and β be a partition of {1, . . . , n} into two blocks. A merging network is a network of comparators which allows as input arbitrary real numbers and has the property tha...
Two sets are non-crossing if they are disjoint or one contains the other. The noncrossing graph NCn is the graph whose vertex set is the set of nonempty subsets of [n] = {1, . . ....
A natural problem in extremal combinatorics is to maximize the number of distinct subsequences for any length-n string over a finite alphabet ; this value grows exponentially, but...

We give an overview on twisting commutative algebraic groups and applications to discrete log based cryptography. We explain how discrete log based cryptography over extension fie...
We study the distribution of the statistics `number of fixed points' and `number of excedances' in permutations avoiding subsets of patterns of length 3. We solve all th...
