Black Cell Capacity in Catalan polyominoes

Jean-Luc Baril, Sela Fried, Nathanaël Hassler +1

A Catalan word is a sequence $w_{1} w_{2} \dots w_{n}$ of nonnegative integers such that $w_{1} = 0$ and $w_{i} \leq w_{i - 1} + 1$ for $2 \leq i \leq n$ . Given a Catalan word, we construct a column…

Black-White Cell Capacity in $k$ -ary Words and Permutations

Sela Fried

We introduce a new bargraph statistic that we call black-white cell capacity. It is obtained by coloring the cells of the bargraph in a chessboard style and recording the numbers o…

Even-up words and their variants

Sela Fried

Inspired by OEIS sequence A377912, which consists of the nonnegative integers in which every even digit (except possibly the last) is immediately followed by a strictly larger digi…

A formula for the number of up-down words

Sela Fried

A word $w_{1} w_{2} \dots w_{n}$ is said to be up-down if $w_{1} < w_{2} > w_{3} \dots$ . Carlitz and Scoville found the generating function for the number of up-down words over an alphabet of s…

Further results on staircase (cyclic) words

Sela Fried

We find the two-variables generating function for the statistic which counts the number of variations in a word bounded by $1$ . Thus, we refine and extend previous results concerni…
