Given $S_n$ acting over $T=1,2,dots,n$ in the usual way, can I count the number of elements in $S_n-cup_i=1^n G_i$ (where $G_i$ is the stabilizer of the element $iin T$) and get an explicit form for them (I mean obtain certain elements that generates this set)?



For example: for $n=3$, the elements of $S_3$ are $(1,2), (1,3), (2,3), (1,2,3), (1,3,2), ()$, so the only elements that are in this set are $(1,2,3)$ and $(1,3,2)$.

          Yes, these are known as derangements. Using the principle of inclusion-exclusion, you can show that the number of them is $$n!sum_k =0^n frac(-1)^kk!,.$$

          • You might add that the proportion of derangements converses very rapidly to $e^-1$. I remember encountering this when very young and wondering about the probability of getting a snap when playing snap with two normal decks of $52$ cards. It's a situation where the number $e$ arises in "real life".
