Determinantal Formula for Generalized Riffle Shuffle
Abstract
We consider a generalized riffle shuffle on the colored permutation group Gp, n and derive a determinantal formula for the probability of finding descents at given positions, proof of which is based on the bijection between the set of shuffles in question and that of non-intersecting lattice paths.
