Abstract

We derive a combinatorial equilibrium for bounded juggling patterns with a random, q-geometric throw distribution. The dynamics are analyzed via rook placements on staircase Ferrers boards, which leads to a stationary distribution containing q-rook polynomial coefficients and q-Stirling numbers of the second kind. We show that the stationary probabilities of the bounded model can be uniformly approximated with the stationary probabilities of a corresponding unbounded model. This observation leads to new limit formulae for q-analogues.
