Decidability in geometric grid classes of permutations

Combinatorics 2025-11-21 v2 Logic

Abstract

We prove that the basis and the generating function of a geometric grid class of permutations Geom(M)(M) are computable from the matrix MM, as well as some variations on this result. Our main tool is monadic second-order logic on permutations and words.
