Combinatorics of geometrically distributed random variables: Inversions and a parameter of Knuth
Helmut Prodinger
Abstract
For words of length n, generated by independent geometric random variables, we consider the mean and variance of the number of inversions and of a parameter of Knuth from permutation in situ. In this way, q--analogues for these parameters from the usual permutation model are obtained.
