DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/JIPS/4/">Lim
 it theorems for descents of Mallows permutations</a>\nby Jimmy He (Stanfor
 d University) as part of Junior Integrable Probability Seminar\n\n\nAbstra
 ct\nThe Mallows measure on the symmetric group gives a way to generate ran
 dom permutations which are more likely to be sorted than not. There has be
 en a lot of recent work to try and understand the limiting properties of M
 allows permutations. I'll discuss recent work on the joint distribution of
  descents\, a statistic counting the number of "drops" in a permutation\, 
 and descents in its inverse\, generalizing work of Chatterjee and Diaconis
 \, and Vatutin. The proof is new even in the uniform case and uses Stein's
  method with a size-bias coupling as well as a regenerative representation
  of Mallows permutations.\n
