%N Number of permutations in S_n with longest increasing subsequence of length <= 3 (i.e., 1234-avoiding permutations); vexillary permutations (i.e., 2143-avoiding).

%C Also the dimension of SL(3)-invariants in V^n tensor (V^*)^n, where V is the standard 3-dimensional representation of SL(3) and V^* is its dual. - Alec Mihailovs (alec(AT)mihailovs.com), Aug 14 2005

%C Also the number of doubly-alternating permutations of length 2n with no four-term increasing subsequence (i.e., 1234-avoiding doubly-alternating permutations). The doubly-alternating permutations (counted by sequence A007999) are those permutations w such that both w and w^(-1) have descent set {2, 4, 6, ...}. - _Joel B. Lewis_, May 21 2009

%C Any permutation without an increasing subsequence of length 4 has a decreasing subsequence of length >= n/3, where n is the length of the sequence, by the Erdős-Szekeres theorem. - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Sep 26 2012

%C Also the number of permutations of length n simultaneously avoiding patterns 1324 and 3416725 (or 1324 and 3612745). - _Alexander Burstein_, Jan 31 2014

%C For any integer n > 0, we have (n+2)^2*a(n) - n^2*a(n-1} = 4*A086618(n). - _Zhi-Wei Sun_, Nov 16 2017
