Descent polynomials for permutations with bounded drop sizeArticle

Authors: Fan Chung 1; Anders Claesson 2; Mark Dukes ORCID3,4; Ronald Graham 1

Motivated by juggling sequences and bubble sort, we examine permutations on the set${1, 2, \ldots, n}$ with $d$ descents and maximum drop size $k$. We give explicit formulas for enumerating such permutations for given integers $k$ and $d$. We also derive the related generating functions and prove unimodality and symmetry of the coefficients.
