Number of permutations avoiding the patterns {2431,4231,4321}; number of weak sorting class based on 2431. - Len Smiley, Nov 01 2005
Number of permutations avoiding the patterns {2413, 3142, 2143}. - Vincent Vatter, Aug 16 2006
Number of permutations avoiding the patterns {2143, 3142, 4132}. - Alexander Burstein and Jonathan Bloom, Aug 03 2013
Number of unimodal Lehmer codes. Those are exactly the inversion sequences for permutations avoiding the patterns {2143, 3142, 4132}. - Alexander Burstein, Jun 16 2015
Number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n ending with a down step (1,-1). A skew Dyck path is a path in the first quadrant which begins at the origin, ends on the x-axis, consists of steps U=(1,1)(up), D=(1,-1)(down) and L=(-1,-1)(left) so that up and left steps do not overlap. The length of the path is defined to be the number of its steps. Number of skew Dyck paths of semilength n and ending with a left step is A128714(n). - Emeric Deutsch, May 11 2007
Number of permutations sortable by a pop stack followed directly by a stack. Equivalently, the number of permutations avoiding {2431, 3142, 3241}. - Vincent Vatter, Mar 06 2013
Hankel transform of this sequence gives A000012 = [1,1,1,1,1,1,...]. - Philippe Deléham, Oct 24 2007

Starting with offset 1 = INVERT transform of A002212: (1, 1, 3, 10, 36, 137, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, May 19 2009

Number of sequences (e(1), ..., e(n)), 0 <= e(i) < i, such that there is no triple i < j < k with e(i) > e(j) < e(k). [Martinez and Savage, 2.20] - Eric M. Schmidt, Jul 17 2017
From David Callan, Jul 21 2017: (Start)
a(n) is the number of permutations of [n] in which the excedances and subcedances are both increasing. (For example, the 3 permutations of [4] NOT counted by a(4)=21 are 3421, 4312, 4321 with excedances/subcedances 34/21, 43/12, 43/21 respectively.)
Proof. It suffices to show that (*) the number of such permutations of [n] containing k fixed points is binomial(n,k)*F(n-k), where F is the Fine number A000957. Since F(n) is the number of 321-avoiding derangements of [n] and because inserting or deleting a fixed point in a permutation does not change the excedance/fixed point/subcedance status of any other entry, (*) is an immediate consequence of the following claim: The excedances and subcedances of a permutation p are both increasing if and only if p avoids 321. The claim is a nice exercise utilizing the cycles of p for the "if" direction and the pigeonhole principle for the "only if" direction. (End)
Conjectured to be the number of permutations of length n that are sorted to the identity by a consecutive-231-avoiding stack followed by a classical-21-avoiding stack. - Colin Defant, Aug 30 2020
a(n) is the number of permutations of length n avoiding the partially ordered pattern (POP) {3>1, 3>4, 1>2} of length 4. That is, the number of length n permutations having no subsequences of length 4 in which the third element is the largest and the first element is larger than the second element. - Sergey Kitaev, Dec 10 2020
