These polynomials provide a natural algebraic tool in the enumerative theory of parking functions. By replacing the differentiation operator with a delta operator and using the theory of finite operator calculus, Lorentz, Tringali and Yan introduced the sequence of generalized Gon\\v{c}arov polynomials associated to a pair $(\\Delta, Z)$ of a delta operator $\\Delta$ and an interpolation grid $Z$. Generalized Gon\\v{c}arov polynomials share many nice algebraic properties and have a connection with the theories of binomial enumeration and order statistics. In this paper we give a complete combinatorial interpretation for any sequence of generalized Gon\\v{c}arov polynomials. First, we show that they can be realized as weight enumerators in partition lattices. Then, we give a more concrete realization in exponential families and show that these polynomials enumerate various enriched structures of vector parking functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-17T23:44:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A10", "05A15", "05A18", "06A07" ], "keywords": [ "partition lattices", "exponential families", "gončarov polynomials", "delta operator", "parking functions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
