Title:Some large polyominoe's perimeter: a stochastic analysis

Abstract:In this paper, we analyze the stochastic properties of some large size (area) polyominoe's perimeter such that the directed column-convex polyomino, the column-convex polyomino, the directed diagonally-convex polyomino, the staircase (or parallelogram) polyomino, the escalier polyomino, the wall (or bargraph) polyomino. All polyominoes considered here are made of contiguous, not-empty columns, without holes, such that each column must be adjacent to some cell of the previous column. We compute the asymptotic (for large size $n$) Gaussian distribution of the perimeter, including the corresponding Markov property of the chain of columns, and the convergence to classical Brownian motions of the perimeter seen as a trajectory according to the successive columns. All polyominoes of size $n$ are considered as equiprobable.
