%N Number of permutations of length n within distance 2 of a fixed permutation.

%C From _Torleiv Kløve_, Jan 09 2009: (Start)

%C Let V(d,n) be the number of permutations of length n within distance d of a fixed permutation. For d=1,2,3,4,...,10 these are A000045, A002524, A002526, A072856, A154654, A154655, A154656, A154657, A154658, A154659. The generating function is a rational function f_d(z)/g_d(z) (see the Kløve report referenced here). For d<=6, deg g_d = 2^{d-1} + binomial(2*d,d)/2 and deg f_d(z) = deg g_d(z)-2d. As a table:

%C d deg g_d deg f_d

%C 1 2 0

%C 2 5 1

%C 3 14 8

%C 4 43 35

%C 5 142 132

%C 6 494 482

%C (End)

%C For positive n, a(n) equals the permanent of the n X n matrix with 1's along the five central diagonals, and 0's everywhere else. - _John M. Campbell_, Jul 09 2011
