TL;DR
This paper establishes a general criterion for the balanced property of permutation statistics and demonstrates that q-derangement and q-Catalan numbers satisfy this property, contributing to combinatorial enumeration theory.
Contribution
It introduces a new criterion for the balanced property based on generating functions and applies it to q-derangement and q-Catalan numbers.
Findings
q-derangement numbers satisfy the balanced property
q-Catalan numbers satisfy the balanced property
Provides a general criterion for balanced properties in permutation statistics
Abstract
Based on Bona's condition for the balanced property of the number of cycles of permutations, we give a general criterion for the balanced property in terms of the generating function of a statistic. We show that the q-derangement numbers and the q-Catalan numbers satisfy the balanced property.
