Notes on Riffle Shuffles

Abstract We prove a few identities involving riffle shuffles including a result on the dimension of a nullspace associated to these shuffles. This result can be applied to determine the number and type of necessary and sufficient order conditions in RK methods of the Crouch-Grossman type. This is joined work with S. Tracogna.
