    Enumerations of specific permutation classes; Factorial. Falling factorial; Permutation matrix. Generalized permutation matrix; Inversion (discrete mathematics) Major index; Ménage problem; Permutation graph; Permutation pattern; Permutation polynomial; Permutohedron; Rencontres numbers; Robinson–Schensted correspondence; Sum of permutations ...

  3. Permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation

    Permutations without repetition on the left, with repetition to their right. If M is a finite multiset, then a multiset permutation is an ordered arrangement of elements of M in which each element appears a number of times equal exactly to its multiplicity in M. An anagram of a word having some repeated letters is an example of a multiset ...

  4. Baxter permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baxter_permutation

    For example, the permutation = in (written in one-line notation) is not a Baxter permutation because, taking =, = and =, this permutation violates the first condition. These permutations were introduced by Glen E. Baxter in the context of mathematical analysis .

  5. Derangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derangement

    (n factorial) is the number of n-permutations; !n (n subfactorial) is the number of derangements – n-permutations where all of the n elements change their initial places. In combinatorial mathematics, a derangement is a permutation of the elements of a set in which no element appears in its original

  6. Cycles and fixed points - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycles_and_fixed_points

    Permutation of four elements with 1 fixed point and 1 3-cycle. In mathematics, the cycles of a permutation π of a finite set S correspond bijectively to the orbits of the subgroup generated by π acting on S. These orbits are subsets of S that can be written as { c 1, ..., c n}, such that π (c i) = c i + 1 for i = 1, ..., n − 1, and π (c n ...

  7. Cyclic permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_permutation

    A cyclic permutation consisting of a single 8-cycle. There is not widespread consensus about the precise definition of a cyclic permutation. Some authors define a permutation σ of a set X to be cyclic if "successive application would take each object of the permuted set successively through the positions of all the other objects", [1] or, equivalently, if its representation in cycle notation ...

  8. Permutation pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permutation_pattern

    In combinatorial mathematics and theoretical computer science, a (classical) permutation pattern is a sub-permutation of a longer permutation.Any permutation may be written in one-line notation as a sequence of entries representing the result of applying the permutation to the sequence 123...; for instance the sequence 213 represents the permutation on three elements that swaps elements 1 and 2.

  9. Stirling permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirling_permutation

    In combinatorial mathematics, a Stirling permutation of order k is a permutation of the multiset 1, 1, 2, 2, ..., k, k (with two copies of each value from 1 to k) with the additional property that, for each value i appearing in the permutation, any values between the two copies of i are larger than i. For instance, the 15 Stirling permutations ...
