%N Number of permutations in S_n avoiding 21{bar 3}54 (i.e., every occurrence of 2154 is contained in an occurrence of a 21354).

%C From _Lara Pudwell_, Oct 23 2008: (Start)

%C 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.

%C 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.

%C 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.

%C 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)

%C The bar refers to a missing piece. In other words to say that a permutation has the pattern 21{bar 3}54 means that it has a 2154 (or equivalently a 2143) pattern but that there is no entry in the permutation so that we can extend this 2154 to a 21354 pattern.

%C (End)

%C From _Mathilde Bouvel_, Apr 26 2017: (Start)

%C Equivalently, permutations avoiding 21{bar 3}54 are those avoiding the vincular pattern 2-14-3.

%C This sequence also enumerates permutations avoiding the vincular pattern 2-41-3 (see Bouvel et al., 2017).
