The 2 x n seating derangements

In this paper, we study the derangement of 2n persons sitting 2 rows and n columns. In how many ways can the $$2n$$ persons rearrange their seating in accordance with the following condition. Each seat is located by one person and reoccupied by another person and each person moves to a horizontal or...
