Distribution of crossings, nestings and alignments of two edges in matchings and partitions
Anisse Kasraoui, Jiang Zeng
Abstract
We construct an involution on set partitions which keeps track of the numbers of crossings, nestings and alignments of two edges. We derive then the symmetric distribution of the numbers of crossings and nestings in partitions, which generalizes Klazar's recent result in perfect matchings. By factorizing our involution through bijections between set partitions and some path diagrams we obtain the continued fraction expansions of the corresponding ordinary generating functions.
