Zolotarev defined the Jacobi symbol in terms of the parity of this operation. The Schensted correspondence relates a pair of Young tableaux and an output of this operation. Frobenius names a group whose members are the output of this operation on a finite group. Stirling numbers of the first kind are used to count the number of cycles in these operations. The group of all of these operations on a set is the (*) symmetric group. Subtypes of this general operation include inversions, derangements, and transpositions. This operation is given by the bijective mapping of members of a set to itself. The number of these operations for n distinct objects is n factorial. For 10 points, name this operation, the rearrangement of a set of items such that order matters, unlike a combination.
