Parking functions are a widely studied class of combinatorial objects, with connections to several branches of mathematics. On the algebraic side, parking functions can be identified with the standard monomials of $M_n$, a certain monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $S = {mathbb K}[x_1, dots, x_n]$ where a set of generators are indexed by the nonempty subsets of $[n] = {1,2,dots,n}$. Motivated by constructions from the theory of chip-firing on graphs we study generalizations of parking functions determined by $M^{(k)}_n$, a subideal of $M_n$ obtained by allowing only generators corresponding to subsets of $[n]$ of size at most $k$. For each $k$ the set of standard monomials of $M^{(k)}_n$, denoted $text{stan}_n^k$, contains the usual parking functions and has interesting combinatorial properties in its own right. For general $k$ we show that elements of $text{stan}_n^k$ can be recovered as certain vector-parking functions, which in turn leads to a formula for their count via results of Yan. The symmetric group $S_n$ naturally acts on the set $text{stan}_n^k$ and we also obtain a formula for the number of orbits under this action. For the case of $k = n-2$ we study combinatorial interpretations of $text{stan}_n^{n-2}$ and relate them to properties of uprooted trees in terms of root degree and surface
Given a graph $G$, the $G$-parking function ideal $M_G$ is an artinian monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $S$ with the property that a linear basis for $S/M_G$ is provided by the set of $G$-parking functions. It follows that the dimension of $S/M_
For each skew shape we define a nonhomogeneous symmetric function, generalizing a construction of Pak and Postnikov. In two special cases, we show that the coefficients of this function when expanded in the complete homogeneous basis are given in ter
The classical parking functions, counted by the Cayley number (n+1)^(n-1), carry a natural permutation representation of the symmetric group S_n in which the number of orbits is the nth Catalan number. In this paper, we will generalize this setup to
We study Schroder paths drawn in a (m,n) rectangle, for any positive integers m and n. We get explicit enumeration formulas, closely linked to those for the corresponding (m,n)-Dyck paths. Moreover we study a Schroder version of (m,n)-parking functions, and associated (q,t)-analogs.
The emph{Shi arrangement} is the set of all hyperplanes in $mathbb R^n$ of the form $x_j - x_k = 0$ or $1$ for $1 le j < k le n$. Shi observed in 1986 that the number of regions (i.e., connected components of the complement) of this arrangement is $(
