A062869 Triangle read by rows: For n >= 1, k >= 0, T(n,k) = the number of permutations pi of n such that the total distance sum_i abs(i-pi(i)) = 2k. Equivalently, k = sum_i max(i-pi(i),0). 2

COMMENTS

Number of possible values is 1,2,3,5,7,10,13,17,21,... = A033638. Maximum distance divided by 2 is the same minus one, i.e. 0,1,2,4,6,9,12,16,20,... = A002620.

Contribution from Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 02 2010: (Start)

The Maple program yields the entries of the specified row n.

EXAMPLE

1; 1,1; 1,2,3; 1,3,7,9,4; 1,4,12,24,35,24,20; ...

(4,3,1,2) has distances (3,1,2,2), sum is 8 and there are 4 other permutations of degree 4 with this sum.

MAPLE

n := 9: with(combinat): P := permute(n): excsum := proc (p) (1/2)*add(abs(p[i]-i), i = 1 .. nops(p)) end proc: f[n] := sort(add(t^excsum(P[j]), j = 1 .. factorial(n))): seq(coeff(f[n], t, j), j = 0 .. floor((1/4)*n^2)); [From Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Apr 02 2010]
