In a recent work, Pan and Zeng proved a $q$-analogue of Carlitz-Scoville's generating function by counting the inversion number. Moreover, they also proved a type B analogue by enumerating the signed permutations with respect to the parity of descent and ascent position. In this work we prove a $q$-analogue of the type B result of Pan and Zeng by counting the type $B$ inversion number. We also obtain a $q$-analogue of the generating functions for the bivariate alternating descent polynomials. Similar results are also obtained for type D Coxeter groups. As a by-product of our proofs, we get $q$-analogues of Hyatt's recurrences for the type B Eulerian polynomials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-11-28T13:05:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05", "05A15", "05E16" ], "keywords": [ "eulerian polynomials", "inversion number", "enumeration", "bivariate alternating descent polynomials", "permutations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
