Inversion sets of transpositions

I have realized that transpositions have very regular looking inversion sets.
If someone knows a reliable source, this property may be mentioned in the article.
They are shown in this table: v:Permutations by cycle type#transpositions
This hint is also here: Talk:Inversion (discrete mathematics)#Inversion sets of transpositions

Combinatorics vs. Group Theory

I find this distinction very strange and I have never come across it (except of course on Wikipedia). Unless someone can come up with a reference, I will remove it and replace it by referenced material. Bill Cherowitzo (talk) 05:44, 6 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
