For descent classes which are singletons the conjectured formula gives the Poincar\u00e9 polynomials of the varieties of symmetric matrices of fixed rank.For several descent classes we prove the conjectural formula. For this we construct suitable supporting sets for the relevant generating functions. We prove cancellations on the complements of these supporting sets using suitably defined sign reversinginvolutions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.37236\/3242","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,10]],"date-time":"2020-01-10T20:21:49Z","timestamp":1578687709000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["A New Statistic on the Hyperoctahedral Groups"],"prefix":"10.37236","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Alexander","family":"Stasinski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Christopher","family":"Voll","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"23455","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,26]]},"container-title":["The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.combinatorics.org\/ojs\/index.php\/eljc\/article\/download\/v20i3p50\/pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.combinatorics.org\/ojs\/index.php\/eljc\/article\/download\/v20i3p50\/pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,17]],"date-time":"2020-01-17T06:12:42Z","timestamp":1579241562000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.combinatorics.org\/ojs\/index.php\/eljc\/article\/view\/v20i3p50"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,26]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,19]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.37236\/3242","relation":{},"ISSN":["1077-8926"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1077-8926","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2013,9,26]]},"article-number":"P50"}}
