| Abstract: |
|---|
| A shuffle of two words is a word obtained by concatenating the two
original words in either order and then sliding any
letters from the second word back past letters of the first word, in
such a way that the letters of each original word remain
spelled out in their original relative order. Examples of shuffles of
the words 1234 and 5678 are, for instance, 15236784 and
51236748. In this talk, I enumerate the distinct shuffles of two
permutations of any two lengths, where the permutations
are written as words in the letters 1,2,3,...,m and 1,2,3,...,n, respectively. |
