Their difference is called a signed Eulerian number. By means of the operator the recurrence relation for signed Eulerian numbers is deduced, which was obtained by an analytic method. Our approach is straightforward and enables us to deduce other properties including divisibility by prime powers.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-02-13T05:07:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05", "20B30" ], "keywords": [ "signed eulerian number", "recurrence relation", "ascent number", "odd permutations", "analytic method" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......2263T" } } }
