Let G = (V, E) be a (directed) graph with vertex set V and edge (arc) set E. Given a set P of (source-sink) pairs of vertices of G, an important problem that arises in the computat...

In this paper, we consider matchings avoiding partial patterns 1123 and 1132. We give a bijection between 1123-avoiding matchings with n edges and nonnegative lattice paths from (...
We complete the enumeration of Dumont permutations of the second kind avoiding a pattern of length 4 which is itself a Dumont permutation of the second kind. We also consider some ...

Stochastic Shortest Path problems (SSPs) can be efficiently dealt with by the Real-Time Dynamic Programming algorithm (RTDP). Yet, RTDP requires that a goal state is always reach...
We investigate the historical roots of the field of combinatorics on words. They comprise applications and interpretations in algebra, geometry and combinatorial enumeration. The...
