Stack words and a bound for 3-stack sortable permutations

Combinatorics 2020-01-23 v4

Abstract

We use stack words to find a new, simple proof for the best known upper bound for the number of 3-stack sortable permutations of a given length. This is the first time that stack words are used to obtain such a result.
