Pattern avoidance in compositions and powers of permutations
Kassie Archer, Noel Bourne
A permutation is said to avoid a chain of patterns if avoids and avoids In this paper, we define a notion of pattern avoidance for composition…
Permutations that strongly avoid 132
Kassie Archer, Christina Graves
A permutation strongly avoids the pattern if both and avoid . In this paper, we enumerate permutations of size that strongly avoid the pattern 132. Th…
Arrow pattern avoidance in permutations: structure and enumeration
Kassie Archer, Robert P. Laudone
Arrow patterns were introduced by Berman and Tenner as a generalization of vincular patterns. They observed that arrow patterns have the potential to bridge the divide between a pe…
Seaweed algebras with restricted part sizes
Kassie Archer, Aaron Geary, Robert P. Laudone
Seaweed algebras are a class of Lie algebras that are naturally characterized by a pair of compositions, which in turn are represented visually as planar graphs called meanders. Th…
Generalized chip firing and critical groups of arithmetical structures on trees
Kassie Archer, Alexander Diaz-Lopez, Darren Glass +1
Chip firing provides a way to study the sandpile group (also known as the Jacobian) of a graph. We use a generalized version of chip firing to bound the number of invariant factors…
Pattern avoidance in non-crossing and non-nesting permutations
Kassie Archer, Robert P. Laudone
Non-crossing and non-nesting permutations are variations of the well-known Stirling permutations. A permutation on is called non-crossing if it avoid…
