A Short Combinatorial Proof of Derangement Identity

Abstract

The n-th rencontres number with the parameter r is the number of permutations having exactly r fixed points. In particular, a derangement is a permutation without any fixed point. We presents a short combinatorial proof for a weighted sum derangement identities.
