The infinite limit of separable permutations

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let (Formula presented.) denote the uniform probability measure on the set of separable permutations in Sn. Let (Formula presented.) with an appropriate metric and denote by (Formula presented.) the compact metric space consisting of functions (Formula presented.) from (Formula presented.) to (Formula presented.) which are injections when restricted to (Formula presented.); that is, if (Formula presented.), i ≠ j, then (Formula presented.). Extending permutations (Formula presented.) by defining (Formula presented.), for j > n, we have (Formula presented.). We show that (Formula presented.) converges weakly on (Formula presented.) to a limiting distribution of regenerative type, which we calculate explicitly.
