From Lara Pudwell, 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)
Number of ordered factorizations over the Gaussian polynomials.
Apparently, also the number of permutations in S_n avoiding {bar 3}{bar 1}542 (i.e., every occurrence of 542 is contained in an occurrence of a 31542). - Lara Pudwell, Apr 25 2008
With offset 1, apparently the number of sequences {b(m)} of length n of positive integers with b(1) = 1 and, for all m > 1, b(m) <= max{b(m-1) + 1, max{b(i) | 1 <= i <= m - 1}}. This sequence begins 1, 2, 5, 14, 43, 144, 523, 2048, 8597, 38486. The term 144 counts the length 6 sequence 1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 3, for instance. Contrast with the families of sequences discussed in Franklin T. Adams-Watters's comment in A005425. - Rick L. Shepherd, Jan 01 2015
a(n-1) for n >= 1 is the number of length-n restricted growth strings (RGS) [s(0), s(1), ..., s(n-1)] with s(0)=0 and s(k) <= the number of fixed points in the prefix, see example. - Joerg Arndt, Mar 08 2015
Number of sequences (e(1), ..., e(n+1)), 0 <= e(i) < i, such that there is no triple i < j < k with e(i) != e(j) = e(k). [Martinez and Savage, 2.15] - Eric M. Schmidt, Jul 17 2017
a(n) counts all positive-integer m-tuples whose maximum is n-m+2. - Mathew Englander, Feb 28 2021
a(n) counts the cyclic permutations of [n+2] that avoid the vincular pattern 12-3-4, i.e., the pattern 1234 where the 1 and 2 are required to be adjacent. - Rupert Li, Jul 27 2021

FORMULA
Formal o.g.f.: (1 - x)*( Sum_{n >= 0} x^n/(1 - (n + 2)*x) ). - Peter Bala, Jul 09 2014
O.g.f.: Sum_{n>=0} (n+1)! * x^n/(1-x)^(n+1) / Product_{k=1..n+1} (1 + k*x). - Paul D. Hanna, Jul 20 2014
O.g.f.: Sum_{n>=0} x^n / ( (1 - n*x) * (1 - (n+1)*x) ). - Paul D. Hanna, Jul 22 2014
From Mathew Englander, Feb 28 2021: (Start)
a(n) = A089246(n+2,0) = A242431(n,0).
a(n) = Sum_{m = 1..n+1} Sum_{i = 0..m-1} binomial(m,i) * (n-m+1)^i.
a(n) = 1 + Sum_{i = 0..n} i * (i+1)^(n-i). (End)
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 1 + 5 + 7 + 1 = 14.
From Paul D. Hanna, Jul 22 2014: (Start)
G.f. A(x) = 1 + 2*x + 5*x^2 + 14*x^3 + 43*x^4 + 144*x^5 + 523*x^6 + 2048*x^7 + ...
where we have the series identity:
A(x) = (1-x)*( 1/(1-2*x) + x/(1-3*x) + x^2/(1-4*x) + x^3/(1-5*x) + x^4/(1-6*x) + x^5/(1-7*x) + x^6/(1-8*x) + ...)
is equal to
A(x) = 1/(1-x) + x/((1-x)*(1-2*x)) + x^2/((1-2*x)*(1-3*x)) + x^3/((1-3*x)*(1-4*x)) + x^4/((1-4*x)*(1-5*x)) + x^5/((1-5*x)*(1-6*x)) + x^6/((1-6*x)*(1-7*x)) + ...
and also equals
A(x) = 1/((1-x)*(1+x)) + 2!*x/((1-x)^2*(1+x)*(1+2*x)) + 3!*x^2/((1-x)^3*(1+x)*(1+2*x)*(1+3*x)) + 4!*x^3/((1-x)^4*(1+x)*(1+2*x)*(1+3*x)*(1+4*x)) + ...
(End)
