FORMULA

The Dotsenko et al. reference gives a g.f. There is an associated triangle of numbers  c_{n,l} that should be added to the OEIS if it is not already present.

In the recurrence coded in Mathematica below, w[n, a] = #3412-avoiding permutations on [n] with first entry a; u[n, a, b] is the number that start with an ascent a<b and v[n, a] is the number that start with a descent from a (n>=2). The main sum for u[n, a, b] counts by length k of the longest initial increasing subsequence. The cases k=2, k=3, k>=4 are considered separately.

EXAMPLE

The 5!-a[5] = 10 permutations on [5] not counted by a[5] are

14523, 24513, 34125, 34512, 35124, 43512, 45123, 45132, 45231, 53412.
