This is a follow-up to this question by
Dominic van der Zypen. For each bijection $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$, let
$$\operatorname{rc}(f) := \liminf_{N\to\infty} \frac{\left|\left\{(m,n)\in\{1,\dots,N\...

Min–max reversing bijections $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$
For any set $X$, let $\newcommand{\N}{\mathbb{N}}[X]^2 = \big\{\{x,y\}:x\neq y \in X\big\}$ and set $[n]^2 = [\{0,\dotsc,n-1\}]^2$ for any positive integer $n$. For $A\subseteq [\N]^2$ we set $$\...
