We consider the enumeration of simple permutations from several aspects. Our results include a straightforward relationship between the ordinary generating function for simple permutations and that for all permutations, that the coefficients of this series are not P-recursive, an asymptotic expansion for these coefficients, and a number of congruence results.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-04-15T22:42:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05", "05A15", "05A16" ], "keywords": [ "simple permutation", "enumeration", "proper non-singleton interval", "coefficients", "congruence results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
