In this paper we introduce the notion of a $p$-Riordan word, and show how to encode $p$-Riordan graphs by $p$-Riordan words. For special important cases of Riordan graphs (the case $p=2$) and oriented Riordan graphs (the case $p=3$) we provide alternative encodings in terms of pattern-avoiding permutations and certain balanced words, respectively. As a bi-product of our studies, we provide an alternative proof of a known enumerative result on closed walks in the cube.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-09-03T01:54:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05", "05A15" ], "keywords": [ "pattern-avoiding permutations", "riordan word", "riordan graph generalizes", "special important cases", "oriented riordan graphs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
