Enumerating cycles in the graph of overlapping permutations

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: The graph of overlapping permutations is a directed graph that is an analogue to the De Bruijn graph. It consists of vertices that are permutations of length n and edges that are permutations of length n+1 in which an edge a1cdotsan+1 would connect the standardization of a1cdotsan to the standardization of a2cdotsan+1. We examine properties of this graph to determine where directed cycles can exist, to count the number of directed 2-cycles within the graph, and to enumerate the vertices that are contained within closed walks and directed cycles of more general lengths.
