Based on Schützenberger's evacuation and a modification of jeu de taquin, we give a bijective proof of an identity connecting the generating function of reverse semistandard Young tableaux with bounded entries with the generating function of all semistandard Young tableaux. This solves Exercise 7.102 b of Richard Stanley's book 'Enumerative Combinatorics 2'.

International audience The number of standard Young tableaux of a fixed shape is famously given by the hook-length formula due to Frame, Robinson and Thrall. A bijective proof of Novelli, Pak and Stoyanovskii relies on a sorting algorithm akin to jeu-de-taquin which transforms an arbitrary filling of a partition into a standard Young tableau by exchanging adjacent entries. Recently, Krattenthaler and Müller defined the complexity of this algorithm as the average number of performed exchanges, and Neumann and the author proved it fulfils some nice symmetry properties. In this paper we recall and extend the previous results and provide new bijective proofs.

International audience This paper presents a new proof of the hook-length formula, which computes the number of standard Young tableaux of a given shape. After recalling the basic definitions, we present two inverse algorithms giving the desired bijection. The next part of the paper presents the proof of the bijectivity of our construction. The paper concludes with some examples.

The Relationship

Abstract In this article, we study tropical-theoretic aspects of the ‘rectification algorithm’ on skew Young tableaux. It is shown that the algorithm is interpreted as a time evolution of some tropical integrable system. By using this fact, we construct a new combinatorial map that is essentially equivalent to the rectification algorithm. Some of properties of the rectification can be seen more clearly via this map. For example, the uniqueness of a rectification boils down to an easy combinatorial problem. Our method is mainly based on the two previous researches: the theory of geometric tableaux by Noumi–Yamada, and the study on the relationship between jeu de taquin slides and the ultradiscrete KP equation by Mikami and Katayama–Kakei.

We address the following question: When a randomly chosen regular bipartite multi–graph is drawn in the plane in the "standard way", what is the distribution of its maximum size planar matching (set of non–crossing disjoint edges) and maximum size planar subgraph (set of non–crossing edges which may share endpoints)? The problem is a generalization of the Longest Increasing Sequence (LIS) problem (also called Ulam's problem). We present combinatorial identities which relate the number of $r$-regular bipartite multi–graphs with maximum planar matching (maximum planar subgraph) of at most $d$ edges to a signed sum of restricted lattice walks in ${\Bbb Z}^d$, and to the number of pairs of standard Young tableaux of the same shape and with a "descend–type" property. Our results are derived via generalizations of two combinatorial proofs through which Gessel's identity can be obtained (an identity that is crucial in the derivation of a bivariate generating function associated to the distribution of the length of LISs, and key to the analytic attack on Ulam's problem). Finally, we generalize Gessel's identity. This enables us to count, for small values of $d$ and $r$, the number of $r$-regular bipartite multi-graphs on $n$ nodes per color class with maximum planar matchings of size $d$.Our work can also be viewed as a first step in the study of pattern avoidance in ordered bipartite multi-graphs.

An inverted semistandard Young tableau is a row-standard tableau along with a collection of inversion pairs that quantify how far the tableau is from being column semistandard. Such a tableau with precisely $k$ inversion pairs is said to be a $k$-inverted semistandard Young tableau. Building upon earlier work by Fresse and the author, this paper develops generating functions for the numbers of $k$-inverted semistandard Young tableaux of various shapes $\lambda$ and contents $\mu$. An easily-calculable generating function is given for the number of $k$-inverted semistandard Young tableaux that "standardize" to a fixed semistandard Young tableau. For $m$-row shapes $\lambda$ and standard content $\mu$, the total number of $k$-inverted standard Young tableaux of shape $\lambda$ is then enumerated by relating such tableaux to $m$-dimensional generalizations of Dyck paths and counting the numbers of "returns to ground" in those paths. In the rectangular specialization of $\lambda = n^m$ this yields a generating function that involves $m$-dimensional analogues of the famed Ballot numbers. Our various results are then used to directly enumerate all $k$-inverted semistandard Young tableaux with arbitrary content and two-row shape $\lambda = a^1 b^1$, as well as all $k$-inverted standard Young tableaux with two-column shape $\lambda=2^n$.

In the study of Kostka numbers and Catalan numbers, Kirillov posed a unimodality conjecture for the rectangular Narayana polynomials. We prove that the rectangular Narayana polynomials have only real zeros, and thereby confirm Kirillov's unimodality conjecture. By using an equidistribution property between descent numbers and ascent numbers on ballot paths due to Sulanke and a bijection between lattice words and standard Young tableaux, we show that the rectangular Narayana polynomial is equal to the descent generating function on standard Young tableaux of certain rectangular shape, up to a power of the indeterminate. Then we obtain the real-rootedness of the rectangular Narayana polynomial based on a result of Brenti which implies that the descent generating function of standard Young tableaux has only real zeros.

Steady State Probabilities

International audience In this paper, we introduce therhombic alternative tableaux, whose weight generating functions providecombinatorial formulae to compute the steady state probabilities of the two-species ASEP. In the ASEP, there aretwo species of particles, oneheavyand onelight, on a one-dimensional finite lattice with open boundaries, and theparametersα,β, andqdescribe the hopping probabilities. The rhombic alternative tableaux are enumerated by theLah numbers, which also enumerate certainassembl ́ees of permutations. We describe a bijection between the rhombicalternative tableaux and these assembl ́ees. We also provide an insertion algorithm that gives a weight generatingfunction for the assemb ́ees. Combined, these results give a bijective proof for the weight generating function for therhombic alternative tableaux.

International audience A combinatorial expression for the coefficient of the Schur function $s_{\lambda}$ in the expansion of the plethysm $p_{n/d}^d \circ s_{\mu}$ is given for all $d$ dividing $n$ for the cases in which $n=2$ or $\lambda$ is rectangular. In these cases, the coefficient $\langle p_{n/d}^d \circ s_{\mu}, s_{\lambda} \rangle$ is shown to count, up to sign, the number of fixed points of an $\langle s_{\mu}^n, s_{\lambda} \rangle$-element set under the $d^e$ power of an order $n$ cyclic action. If $n=2$, the action is the Schützenberger involution on semistandard Young tableaux (also known as evacuation), and, if $\lambda$ is rectangular, the action is a certain power of Schützenberger and Shimozono's <i>jeu-de-taquin</i> promotion.This work extends results of Stembridge and Rhoades linking fixed points of the Schützenberger actions to ribbon tableaux enumeration. The conclusion for the case $n=2$ is equivalent to the domino tableaux rule of Carré and Leclerc for discriminating between the symmetric and antisymmetric parts of the square of a Schur function. Une expression combinatoire pour le coefficient de la fonction de Schur $s_{\lambda}$ dans l’expansion du pléthysme $p_{n/d}^d \circ s_{\mu}$ est donné pour tous $d$ que disent $n$, dans les cas où $n=2$, ou $\lambda$ est rectangulaire. Dans ces cas, le coefficient $\langle p_{n/d}^d \circ s_{\mu}, s_{\lambda} \rangle$ se montre à compter, où l’on ignore le signe, le nombre des point fixés d’un ensemble de $\langle s_{\mu}^n, s_{\lambda} \rangle$ éléments sous la puissance $d^e$ d’une action cyclique de l’ordre $n$. Si $n=2$, l’action est l’involution de Schützenberger sur les tableaux semi-standard de Young (aussi connu sous le nom des évacuations), et si $\lambda$ est rectangulaire, l’action est une certaine puissance de l’avancement jeu-de-taquin de Schützenberger et Shimozono.Ce travail étend les résultats de Stembridge et Rhoades, liant les point fixés des actions de Schützenberger aux tableaux de ruban. Pour le cas $n=2$ , la conclusion est équivalent à la règle des tableaux de dominos de Carré et Leclerc, qui distingue entre les parties symétriques et asymétriques du carré d’une fonction de Schur.
