On computing the total displacement number via weighted Motzkin paths

Counting the number of permutations of a given total displacement is equivalent to counting weighted Motzkin paths of a given area (Guay-Paquet and Petersen, 2014). The former combinatorial problem is still open. In this work, we show that this connection allows to construct efficient algorithms for counting and for sampling such permutations. These algorithms provide a tool to better understand the original combinatorial problem. A by-product of our approach is a different way of counting based on certain building sequences for Motzkin paths, which may be of independent interest.

Higher-order distributions and nongrowing complex networks without multiple connections

We study stochastic processes that generate non-growing complex networks without self-loops and multiple edges (simple graphs). The work concentrates on understanding and formulation of constraints which keep the rewiring stochastic processes within the class of simple graphs. To formulate these constraints a new concept of wedge distribution (paths of length 2) is introduced and its relation to degree-degree correlation is studied. The analysis shows that the constraints, together with edge selection rules, do not even allow to formulate a closed master equation in the general case. We also introduce a particular stochastic process which does not contain edge selection rules, but which, we believe, can provide some insight into the complexities of simple graphs.
