Parity theorems for statistics on lattice paths and Laguerre configurations
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 8 (2005) no. 5
We examine the parity of some statistics on lattice paths and Laguerre configurations, giving both algebraic and combinatorial treatments. For the former, we evaluate $q$-generating functions at $q =-1$; for the latter, we define appropriate parity-changing involutions on the associated structures. In addition, we furnish combinatorial proofs for a couple of related recurrences.
