In this paper, we show how the longest non-decreasing subsequence, identified in the graph of the paired marginal ranks of the observations, allows the construction of a statistic for the development of an independence test in bivariate vectors. The test works in the case of discrete and continuous data. Since the present procedure does not require the continuity of the variables, it expands the proposal introduced in Independence tests for continuous random variables based on the longest increasing subsequence (2014). We show the efficiency of the procedure in detecting dependence in real cases and through simulations.

Inspired by the results of Stanley and Widom concerning the limiting distribution of the lengths of longest alternating subsequences in random permutations, and results of Deutsch, Hildebrand and Wilf on the limiting distribution of the longest increasing subsequence for pattern-restricted permutations, we find the limiting distribution of the longest alternating subsequence for pattern-restricted permutations in which the pattern is any one of the six patterns of length three. Our methodology uses recurrences, generating functions, and complex analysis, and also yields more detailed information. Several ideas for future research are listed.

We compute the limit distribution for the (centered and scaled) length of the longest increasing subsequence of random colored permutations. The limit distribution function is a power of that for usual random permutations computed recently by Baik, Deift, and Johansson (math.CO/9810105). In the two–colored case our method provides a different proof of a similar result by Tracy and Widom about the longest increasing subsequences of signed permutations (math.CO/9811154). Our main idea is to reduce the 'colored' problem to the case of usual random permutations using certain combinatorial results and elementary probabilistic arguments.

This study examined the anecdotal notion that people choose partners based on preferred characteristics that constitute their ‘type’. We gathered the eye colours of participants’ partners across their entire romantic history in three samples (student-centred, adult, and celebrity). We calculated the proportion of partners’ eye colours, and compared that to 100,000 random permutations of our observed dataset using t-tests. This was to investigate if the eye colour choices in the original datasets had greater consistency than in the permutations. Across all samples, we observed no good evidence that individuals make consistent eye colour choices, suggesting that eye colour may not be a priority when choosing a partner.

Abstract Let ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ')$ be the probability that two independent, uniformly random permutations of [n] have the same order. Answering a question of Thibault Godin, we prove that ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ') = {n^{ - 2 + o(1)}}$ and that ${\mathbb{P}}(ord\pi = ord\pi ') \ge {1 \over 2}{n^{ - 2}}lg*n$ for infinitely many n. (Here lg*n is the height of the tallest tower of twos that is less than or equal to n.)
