  2. Inclusion–exclusion principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion–exclusion...

    In the given example, there are 12 = 2(3!) permutations with property P 1, 6 = 3! permutations with property P 2 and no permutations have properties P 3 or P 4 as there are no restrictions for these two elements. The number of permutations satisfying the restrictions is thus: 4! − (12 + 6 + 0 + 0) + (4) = 24 − 18 + 4 = 10.

  3. Twelvefold way - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelvefold_way

    In combinatorics, the twelvefold way is a systematic classification of 12 related enumerative problems concerning two finite sets, which include the classical problems of counting permutations, combinations, multisets, and partitions either of a set or of a number.

  4. Combinations and permutations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combinations_and_permutations

    Combinations and permutations in the mathematical sense are described in several articles. Described together, in-depth: Twelvefold way; Explained separately in a more accessible way: Combination; Permutation; For meanings outside of mathematics, please see both words’ disambiguation pages: Combination (disambiguation) Permutation ...

  5. Automorphisms of the symmetric and alternating groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automorphisms_of_the...

    The specific nature of the outer automorphism is as follows. The 360 permutations in the even subgroup (A 6) are transformed amongst themselves: the sole identity permutation maps to itself; a 3-cycle such as (1 2 3) maps to the product of two 3-cycles such as (1 4 5)(2 6 3) and vice versa, accounting for 40 permutations each way;

  7. Discrepancy of permutations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrepancy_of_permutations

    Discrepancy of permutations is a sub-field of discrepancy theory, that deals with balancing intervals induced by permutations of elements. There is a set of n elements, and there are m different permutations on this set. The general research question is: can we color each element in one of two different colors (e.g. black and white), such that ...

  8. Restriction (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restriction_(mathematics)

    The pasting lemma is a result in topology that relates the continuity of a function with the continuity of its restrictions to subsets. Let X , Y {\displaystyle X,Y} be two closed subsets (or two open subsets) of a topological space A {\displaystyle A} such that A = X ∪ Y , {\displaystyle A=X\cup Y,} and let B {\displaystyle B} also be a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinhaus–Johnson...

    The ! permutations of the numbers from 1 to may be placed in one-to-one correspondence with the ! numbers from 0 to ! by pairing each permutation with the sequence of numbers that count the number of positions in the permutation that are to the right of value and that contain a value less than (that is, the number of inversions for which is the ...
