Talk:Derangement

d(n) also satisfies the recurrence: d(n) = n*d(n-1) + (-1)^n.
see: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Derangement.html
I've seen the relation proved by inclusion-exclusion.

General formula

The page about rencontres numbers gives a general formula for the derangements as the closest integer to $n! \over e$ . Is this formula valid for all n? I checked with the first points (ok), and it's obviously valid in the limit. Is there a proof? A corollary of this formula would be a proof that e is irrational. Albmont 13:24, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It is the closest for all natural numbers except n=0. You can always get the correct integer for d_n by rounding up at even n and rounding down at odd n. JRSpriggs 05:10, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Probably the formula

!n=\left\lfloor {\frac {n!}{e}}+{\frac {1}{2}}\right\rfloor

should somehow state this, that it doesn't work for n=0?--Thomasda (talk) 15:06, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, of course, I added it to the article. Paul Breeuwsma (talk) 15:25, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The proof is an application of the inclusion-exclusion principle. I'm a bit surprised that this page doesn't say that. Michael Hardy 16:44, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The details are on the page for Random Permutation Statistics], Maybe we should link there? -Zahlentheorie 09:45, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Applications

Would it be possible to add a section on why this is useful, what are the applications of this math? - Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.60.15.67 (talk) 08:53, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dual Dearrangement

Suppose we have a list A of 2n distinct elements {a_1i, a_2i; i=1, 2, ..., n}. A dual dearrangement is a permutation of A in which no element a_1i or a_2i is at any positions 2_i and 2_i-1, and no two elements a_1i and a_2i occupy the positions 2j and 2j-1, for any j, in any order.

The method used to derive derangement problem doesn't seem to work for the dual derangement. Any thought?

Derangement product proof

Does anyone have a proof that the product of all deranged permutations equals the identity?

Darcourse (talk) 15:26, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't that follow immediately by symmetry? —David Eppstein (talk) 17:05, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think if you assume the product of all permutations is I, and the conjecture is true for all derangements of permutations < k, then by induction on the fixed point permutations of k (all equal I over a particular set of fixed points) then as all perms=fixed point perms + derangements, derangements = I.

I added an answer on my talk. My suggestion that it follows from symmetry assumes that you have a symmetric definition for "the product". In what order are you multiplying them? Also, it's not even true for

n=2

. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:03, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No matter how you define the product, you will not get the identity when there is an odd number of odd derangements. This appears to happen whenever n = 2 (mod 4); see OEIS:A000387 and note the pattern of odd numbers in it. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:26, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
