Abstract
Inspired by the definition of modified ascent sequences, we introduce a new class of integer sequences called revised ascent sequences. These sequences are defined as Cayley permutations where each entry is a leftmost occurrence if and only if it serves as an ascent bottom. We construct a bijection between ascent sequences and revised ascent sequences by adapting the classic hat map, which transforms ascent sequences into modified ascent sequences. Additionally, we investigate revised ascent sequences that avoid a single pattern, leading to a wealth of enumerative results. Our main techniques include the use of bijections, generating trees, generating functions, and the kernel method.
