Abstract
Two permutations of are \textit{-neighbor separated} if there are two elements that are neighbors in one of the permutations and that are separated by exactly other elements in the other permutation. Let the maximal number of pairwise -neighbor separated permutations of be denoted by . In a previous paper, the authors have determined for every , answering a question of K\"orner, Messuti and Simonyi affirmatively. In this paper we prove that for every fixed positive integer , We conjecture that for every fixed even , . We also show that this conjecture is asymptotically true in the following sense Finally, we show that for even , .
