A direct bijection between descending plane partitions with no special parts and permutation matrices (Q409382)

The main topic of the paper is the construction of a bijection between the set of descending plane partitions of order n and the set of permutation matrices of order \(n\). There is also a discussion of possible extensions of this result for constructing an explicit bijection between the set of descending plane partitions of order \(n\) and the set of alternating sign matrices of that order.
