PIMS Distinguished Chair Lecturer - Bubblesort and Juggling Sequences
Speakers
Details
In this talk I will describe some recent results concerning
the connection between the bubblesort sorting algorithm and certain
integer sequences used to analyze various juggling patterns. The
analysis leads to new results on the joint distribution of the descent
and maximum drop statistics of a permutation, as well as a new class of
identities for the classical Eulerian numbers.
