Let $S_n$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]$ and let $\sigma=\sigma_1\cdots\sigma_n\in S_n$. For a subsequence $\{\sigma_{i_j}\}_{j=1}^k$ of $\{\sigma_i\}_{i=1}^n$ of length $k\ge2$, construct the ``up/down'' sequence $V_1\cdots…
Not long ago, Claesson and Mansour proposed some conjectures about the enumeration of the permutations avoiding more than three Babson - Steingr\'\i msson patterns (generalized patterns of type $(1,2)$ or $(2,1)$). The avoidance of one, two…
Define $S_n^k(T)$ to be the set of permutations of $\{1,2,...,n\}$ with exactly $k$ fixed points which avoid all patterns in $T \subseteq S_m$. We enumerate $S_n^k(T)$, $T \subseteq S_3$, for all $|T| \geq 2$ and $0 \leq k \leq n$.
Partially ordered patterns (POPs) generalize the notion of classical patterns studied in the literature in the context of permutations, words, compositions and partitions. In this paper, we give a number of general, and specific enumerative…
The signed permutation modules are a simultaneous generalization of the ordinary permutation modules and the twisted permutation modules of the symmetric group. In a recent paper Dave Benson and Peter Symonds defined a new invariant…
Finding distributions of permutation statistics over pattern-avoiding classes of permutations attracted much attention in the literature. In particular, Bukata et al. found distributions of ascents and descents on permutations avoiding any…
We prove that the number of permutations avoiding an arbitrary consecutive pattern of length m is asymptotically largest when the avoided pattern is 12...m, and smallest when the avoided pattern is 12...(m-2)m(m-1). This settles a…
A permutation of the integers avoiding monotone arithmetic progressions of length $6$ was constructed in (Geneson, 2018). We improve on this by constructing a permutation of the integers avoiding monotone arithmetic progressions of length…
Three complementation-like involutions are constructed on permutations to prove, and in some cases generalize, all remaining fourteen joint symmetric equidistribution conjectures of Lv and Zhang. Further enumerative results are obtained for…
A conjecture by Deutsch, Kitaev, and Remmel states that the triples of permutation statistics $(S_{10}, S_{12}, S_{17})$ and $(S_{12}, S_{10} ,S_{17})$ are equidistributed over the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. Here, $S_{10}$ enumerates…
We present bijections between four classes of combinatorial objects. Two of them, the class of unlabeled (2+2)-free posets and a certain class of involutions (or chord diagrams), already appeared in the literature, but were apparently not…
The existence of apparently coincidental equalities (also called Wilf-equivalences) between the enumeration sequences, or generating functions, of various hereditary classes of combinatorial structures has attracted significant interest. We…
Two mesh patterns are coincident if they are avoided by the same set of permutations. In this paper, we provide necessary conditions for this coincidence, which include having the same set of enclosed diagonals. This condition is sufficient…
We prove that any class of permutations defined by avoiding a partially ordered pattern (POP) with height at most two has a regular insertion encoding and thus has a rational generating function. Then, we use Combinatorial Exploration to…
Diaconis and Graham studied a measure of distance from the identity in the symmetric group called total displacement and showed that it is bounded below by the sum of length and reflection length. They asked for a characterization of the…
We say that an unordered rooted labeled forest avoids the pattern $\pi\in\mathcal{S}_n$ if the sequence obtained from the labels along the path from the root to any vertex does not contain a subsequence that is in the same relative order as…
We introduce consecutive-pattern-avoiding stack-sorting maps $\text{SC}_\sigma$, which are natural generalizations of West's stack-sorting map $s$ and natural analogues of the classical-pattern-avoiding stack-sorting maps $s_\sigma$…
Egge conjectured that permutations avoiding the set of patterns $\{2143,3142,\tau\}$, where $\tau\in\{246135,254613,263514,524361,546132\}$, are enumerated by the large Schr\"oder numbers. Consequently, $\{2143,3142,\tau\}$ with $\tau$ as…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive $p$-adic group and let $\theta$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order at most two. Suppose $\pi$ is an irreducible smooth representation of $G$ that is taken to its dual by $\theta$. The space $V$ of $\pi$ then…
The periodic (ordinal) patterns of a map are the permutations realized by the relative order of the points in its periodic orbits. We give a combinatorial characterization of the periodic patterns of an arbitrary signed shift, in terms of…
