COMMENTS

Comment from Lara Pudwell (Lara.Pudwell(AT)valpo.edu), Oct 23 2008 (Start):

A permutation p avoids a pattern q if it has no subsequence that is order-isomorphic to q. For example, p avoids the pattern 132 if it has no subsequence abc with a<c<b.

Barred pattern avoidance considers permutations that avoid a pattern except in a special case. Given a barred pattern q, we may form two patterns, q1 = the sequence of unbarred letters of q and q2 = the sequence of all letters of q.

A permutation p avoids barred pattern q if every instance of q1 in p is embedded in a copy of q2 in p. In other words, p avoids q1, except in the special case that a copy of q1 is a subsequence of a copy of q2.

For example, if q=5{bar 1}32{bar 4}, then q1=532 and q2 = 51324. p avoids q if every for decreasing subsequence acd of length 3 in p, one can find letters b and e so that the subsequence abcde of p has b<d<c<e<a. (End)

Also equals the row sums of triangle A131338, which starts with a '1' in row 0 and then for n>0 row n consists of n '1's followed by the partial sums of the prior row.

Also the number of permutations in S_n avoiding {bar 4}25{bar 1}3 (i.e. every occurrence of 253 is contained in an occurrence of a 42513). - Lara Pudwell (Lara.Pudwell(AT)valpo.edu), Apr 25 2008 (see the Claesson-Dukes-Kitaev article)

Number of sequences S = s(1)s(2)...s(n) such that

  S contains m 0s,

  for 1<=j<=n, s(j)<j and s(j-s(j)) = 0,

  for 1<j<=n, if s(j) positive, then s(j-1) < s(j). [Frank Ruskey, Apr 17 2011]
