Do monotone functions on the interval have an "Alexander duality" property?
Let $X,Y$ be two copies of the unit interval $[0,1]$. Consider functions $X\rightarrow Y$ and $Y\rightarrow X$ both as subsets of the cartesian product $X\times Y$. (More precisely: identify a ...

Generalized Puiseux series for diagonal reflections of the curves $y = \frac{x}{(1-ax)(1-bx)^m}$
Reflection of the curve $y = f_m(x) = \frac{x}{(1-ax)(1-bx)^m}$ through the diagonal line $y=x$ in the $xy$-plane can be regarded as local compositional inversion of the curve $y=f_m(x)$. ($x,y,a,b$ ...

Noncrossing partitions in Hopf algebras/monoids via compositional inversion
Partition polynomials constructed from the face structures of the associahedra (OEIS A133437) and permutahedra (A133314) comprise the antipodes/compositional inverses in a Faa-di-Bruno-type Hopf ...

Refined f- and h-partition polynomials of the associahedra
The f-polynomials, $F_n(x)$ (cf. OEIS A126216, A033282, and A086810), and the h-polynomials, $H_n(x)$ (cf. A001263, the Narayana polynomials), of the family of simple convex polytopes the associahedra ...
