The enumeration of sequences with restrictions on their partial sums
Summary: We examine sequences containing \(p\) ``\(-t\)s and \(pt+r\) ``\(+1\)s, where \(p\), \(t\), and \(r\) are integers satisfying \(p\geq 0\), \(t\geq 1\) and \(pt+r\geq 0\). We develop a rotation method to enumerate the number of sequences meeting additional requirements related to their partial sums. We also define downcrossings about \(\ell\) and their downcrossing numbers, and obtain formulas for the number of sequences for which the sum of the downcrossing numbers equals \(k\), for \(\ell\leq r+1\). We finish with an investigation of the first downcrossing number about \(\ell\), for any \(\ell\).
