Generalized Riffle Shuffles and Quasisymmetric Functions

Richard P. Stanley

This paper concerns a probability distribution on the symmetric group generalizing the riffle shuffle of Bayer, Diaconis, and others. There are close connections with the theory of…

A polytope related to empirical distributions, plane trees, parking functions, and the associahedron

Jim Pitman, Richard Stanley

We define an n-dimensional polytope Pi_n(x), depending on parameters x_i>0, whose combinatorial properties are closely connected with empirical distributions, plane trees, plane pa…
