Enumeration of Carlitz Multipermutations

Abstract

A multipermutation with k copies each of 1… n is Carlitz if neighbours are different. We enumerate these objects for k=2,3,4 and derive recurrences. In particular, we prove and improve a conjectured recurrence for k=3, stated in OEIS, the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.
