[HTML][HTML] Staircase tilings and k-Catalan structures

S Heubach, NY Li, T Mansour - Discrete Mathematics, 2008 - Elsevier
Many interesting combinatorial objects are enumerated by the k-Catalan numbers, one
possible generalization of the Catalan numbers. We will present a new combinatorial object …

Greedy Gray codes for Dyck words and ballot sequences

V Vajnovszki, D Wong - International Computing and Combinatorics …, 2023 - Springer
We present a simple greedy algorithm for generating Gray codes for Dyck words and fixed-
weight Dyck prefixes. Successive strings in our listings differ from each other by a …

[HTML][HTML] Ranking and unranking of non-regular trees with a prescribed branching sequence

RY Wu, JM Chang, CH Chang - Mathematical and Computer Modelling, 2011 - Elsevier
Ordered trees are called non-regular trees with a prescribed branching sequence (or non-
regular trees for short) if their internal nodes have a pre-specified degree sequence in …

Ranking and unranking algorithms for loopless generation of t-ary trees

A Ahmadi-Adl, A Nowzari-Dalini… - Logic Journal of the …, 2011 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we present two new ranking and unranking algorithms for z-sequences in Gray-
code order. These algorithms are designed based on a loopless generation algorithm which …

[HTML][HTML] Cool-lex order and k-ary Catalan structures

S Durocher, PC Li, D Mondal, F Ruskey… - Journal of Discrete …, 2012 - Elsevier
For any given k, the sequence of k-ary Catalan numbers, Ct, k= 1kt+ 1 (ktt), enumerates a
number of combinatorial objects, including k-ary Dyck words of length n= kt and k-ary trees …

Ranking and Unranking of t-Ary Trees Using RD-Sequences

RY Wu, JM Chang, YL Wang - IEICE TRANSACTIONS on …, 2011 - search.ieice.org
In this paper, we introduce a concise representation, called right-distance sequences (or RD-
sequences for short), to describe all t-ary trees with n internal nodes. A result reveals that …

Generating 2-Gray codes for ballot sequences in constant amortized time

D Wong, F Calero, K Sedhai - Discrete Mathematics, 2023 - Elsevier
We present a simple algorithm that generates a cyclic 2-Gray code for ballot sequences. The
algorithm generates each ballot sequence in constant amortized time using a linear amount …

Ranking and unranking t-ary trees in a Gray-code order

RY Wu, JM Chang, AH Chen, CL Liu - The Computer Journal, 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
A t-ary tree is a rooted tree such that every internal node has exactly t disjoint subtrees.
Recently, a concise representation called right-distance sequences (RD-sequences) was …

Ranking and unranking of non-regular trees in Gray-code order

RY Wu, JM Chang, AH Chen, MT Ko - IEICE Transactions on …, 2013 - search.ieice.org
A non-regular tree T with a prescribed branching sequence (s 1, s 2,..., sn) is a rooted and
ordered tree such that its internal nodes are numbered from 1 to n in preorder and every …

[PDF][PDF] A garden of k-Catalan structures

S Heubach, NY Li, T Mansour - preprint, 2014 - researchgate.net
The aim in this paper is to collect in one place a list of currently known and new structures
enumerated by the k-ary numbers. Some of the structures listed already exist in the folk-lore …
