On the distribution of the $m$th maximal cycle lengths of random $A$-permutations

Let $S_n$ be the symmetric group of all permutations of degree $n$, $A$ be some subset of the set of natural numbers $\mathbf N$, and $T_n=T_n(A)$ be the set of all permutations of $S_n$ with cycle lengths belonging to $A$. The permutations of $T_n$ are called $A$-permutations. We consider a wide class of the sets $A$ with the asymptotic density $\sigma>0$. In this article, the limit distributions are obtained for $\mu_{m}(n)/n$ as $n\to\infty$ and $m\in\mathbf N$ is fixed. Here $\mu_{m}(n)$ is the length of the $m$th maximal cycle in a random permutation uniformly distributed on $T_n$. It is shown here that these limit distributions coincide with the limit distributions of the corresponding functionals of the random permutations in the Ewens model with parameter $\sigma$.
