An involution principle-free bijective proof of Stanley's hook-content formula.
Given two measured spaces and , and a third space , given two functions and , we study the problem of finding two maps and such that the images and coincide, and the integral is maximal. We give condition on and for which there is a unique solution.
Given two measured spaces and , and a third space Z, given two functions u(x,z) and v(x,z), we study the problem of finding two maps and such that the images and coincide, and the integral is maximal. We give condition on u and v for which there is a unique solution.
A composition of a positive integer n is a finite sequence π1π2...πm of positive integers such that π1+...+πm = n. Let d be a fixed number. We say that we have an ascent of size d or more (respectively, less than d) if πi+1 ≥ πi+d (respectively, πi < πi+1 < πi + d). Recently, Brennan and Knopfmacher determined the mean, variance and limiting distribution of the number of ascents of size d or more in the set of compositions of n. In this paper, we find an explicit formula for the multi-variable...
