Feb 3, 2018 at 23:35 comment added YCor Btw a few more rows for the second triangle would be welcome to get some intuition, if you did the computation.
Feb 3, 2018 at 18:22 comment added YCor OK thanks, I got it. It amounts to count those $\pi$ such that $\langle\sigma,\pi\rangle$ acts transitively, according to the partition type induced by the orbits of its subgroup $\langle\sigma,\pi\sigma\pi^{-1}\rangle$.
Feb 3, 2018 at 18:08 comment added thedude Ah, sorry about that. I didn't want to overburden the question with definitions. Coset type is defined in the classical book by MacDonald, or (very quickly) in section 2.1 of this paper: arxiv.org/pdf/1601.08206.pdf
Feb 3, 2018 at 17:59 comment added YCor The coset set $S_{2n}/H_n$ has cardinal $\frac{(2n)!}{n!2^n}$; it identifies to the set of partitions of $2n$ elements into $n$ classes of cardinal 2. What is the the meaning of "coset type"? More precisely, given a partition $\lambda$ of $n$ and $\pi\in S_{2n}$, what do you mean by $\pi$ being of coset type $\lambda$? I'm not familiar with this vocabulary.

Feb 3, 2018 at 17:42 comment added YCor I've read your first sentence "I want to count permutations"... which is confusing. Please edit to clarify.
Feb 3, 2018 at 17:36 comment added thedude @YCor It is not from integers to integers, because I am breaking down according to coset type. So it is a function from partitions to integers.
Feb 3, 2018 at 17:33 comment added YCor Maybe try to formulate things better. You're asking for a function from integers to integers (the number $p_n$ of those $\pi$ such that $\sigma,\pi$ generate a transitive subgroup on $2n$ elements), and then you're listing something which doesn't appear to just be a function from integers to integers...
