Permutations and combinations of n objects as well as the elements of the dihedral group of order 2n (i.e. flips and rotation of an n-gun) are represented as nodes of trees. The algorithms for generating the nodes and traversing the trees are illustrated using flowcharts and specific walk-throughs f

โฆ Synopsis
Representation of permutations and combinations of N elements in lexicographical order by elements of a tree are considered. An algorithm for generating the nodes is presented and some examples are given. The algorithm could be implemented in any programming language that allows for recursive calls.

We give a combinatorial proof of the formula giving the number of representations of an even permutation ฯ in S n as a product of an n-cycle by an (n -2)-cycle, such a number being (nฯ(ฯ ))(n -3)!, where ฯ(ฯ ) is the number of fixed points of ฯ . This proof relies on the fact that any odd permutatio
## Abstract The topic of this paper is representing permutation groups by connected graphs with proper edge colourings. Every connected graph __G__ with a proper edge colouring ฯ determines a group __A~c~__(__G__, ฯ) of graph automorphisms which preserve the colours of the edges. We characterize pe
Let G = (X, E) be a finite connected (undirected) graph; a permutation (T over X is said to tie compatible with G when every vertex x different from U(X) is adjacent to U(X); 1(G) denotes the minimum k such that every permutation over X can be decomposed into a product of k permutations compatible w
