We count the pairs of walks between diagonally opposite corners of a given lattice rectangle by the number of points in which they intersect. We note that the number of such pairs with one intersection is twice the number with no intersection and we give a bijective proof of that fact. Some probabil

โฆ Synopsis
This formula was proved in [2] by means of generating functions.
2. INTERPRETATION OF THE FORMULA'S SUMMANDS
Our bijection is based on an appropriate lattice-path-interpretation for the formula's summands (pointed out by Krattenthaler [4]): Clearly, we article no. TA962754 154 0097-3165ร97 25.00

We study the numbers M n, k r, s , N n, r k =M n, k r, r , N E (n, k, p), and N O (n, k, p), prove several simple relations among them, and derive a simpler formula for M n, k r, s than appears in .
For every hypergraph on n vertices there is an associated subspace arrangement in R n called a hypergraph arrangement. We prove shellability for the intersection lattices of a large class of hypergraph arrangements. This class incorporates all the hypergraph arrangements which were previously shown
## Abstract For a vertex __v__ of a graph __G__, we denote by __d__(__v__) the __degree__ of __v__. The __local connectivity__ ฮบ(__u, v__) of two vertices __u__ and __v__ in a graph __G__ is the maximum number of internally disjoint __u__ โ__v__ paths in __G__, and the __connectivity__ of __G__ is
