In this paper, we study pattern avoidance for stabilized-interval-free (SIF) permutations. These permutations are contained in the set of indecomposable permutations and in the set of derangements. We enumerate pattern-avoiding SIF…

Let $E_n^r=\{[\tau]_a=(\tau_1^{(a_1)},...,\tau_n^{(a_n)})| \tau\in S_n,\ 1\leq a_i\leq r\}$ be the set of all signed permutations on the symbols 1,2,...,n with signs 1,2,...,r. We prove, for every 2-letter signed pattern $[\tau]_a$, that…

Building off recent work of Garg and Peng, we continue the investigation into classical and consecutive pattern avoidance in rooted forests. We prove a forest analogue of the Stanley-Wilf conjecture for avoiding a single pattern as well as…

Ascent sequences form a central class of combinatorial objects, as they are in bijection with several important families such as (2+2)-free posets, Stoimenow matchings, and other Fishburn objects, and are enumerated by the Fishburn numbers.…

Babson and Steingr\`imsson introduced generalized permutation patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. Subsequently, Claesson presented a complete solution for the…

Let $\sigma$ and $\tau$ be patterns of length three; that is $\sigma, \tau \in \{123,132,213,231,312,321\}$. In this paper, we enumerate the set of cyclic permutations in $\mathcal{S}_n$ that avoid $\sigma$ in their one-line notation and…

The Stanley-Wilf limit of the pattern 1324 is known to lie between 10.271 and 13.5. We obtain lower bounds on this limit by encoding permutations as walks in directed graphs: building a permutation by successive insertion of maxima…

We develop a new, powerful method for counting elements in a multiset. As a first application, we use this algorithm to study the number of occurrences of patterns in a permutation. For patterns of length 3 there are two Wilf classes, and…

Evil-avoiding permutations, introduced by Kim and Williams in 2022, arise in the study of the inhomogeneous totally asymmetric simple exclusion process. Rectangular permutations, introduced by Chiriv\`i, Fang, and Fourier in 2021, arise in…

In [Kit1] Kitaev discussed simultaneous avoidance of two 3-patterns with no internal dashes, that is, where the patterns correspond to contiguous subwords in a permutation. In three essentially different cases, the numbers of such…

We enumerate and characterize some classes of alternating and reverse alternating involutions avoiding a single pattern of length three or four. If on one hand the case of patterns of length three is trivial, on the other hand, the length…

Let $s$ be West's stack-sorting map, and let $s_{T}$ be the generalized stack-sorting map, where instead of being required to increase, the stack avoids subpermutations that are order-isomorphic to any permutation in the set $T$. In 2020,…

Let T_k^m={\sigma \in S_k | \sigma_1=m}. We prove that the number of permutations which avoid all patterns in T_k^m equals (k-2)!(k-1)^{n+1-k} for k <= n. We then prove that for any \tau in T_k^1 (or any \tau in T_k^k), the number of…

We study the equidistribution of mesh patterns of length 2. We show that the number of equidistribution equivalence classes lies between 105 and 108, and conjecture that it is exactly 105. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound of 49…

A permutation $\pi$ is said to avoid a chain $(\sigma:\tau)$ of patterns if $\pi$ avoids $\sigma$ and $\pi^2$ avoids $\tau.$ In this paper, we define a notion of pattern avoidance for compositions of positive integers and use that idea to…

We consider the distribution of the length of the longest subsequence avoiding a given pattern in a random permutation of length n. The well-studied case of a longest increasing subsequence corresponds to avoiding the pattern 21. We show…

For a set of permutation patterns $\Pi$, let $F^\text{st}_n(\Pi,q)$ be the st-polynomial of permutations avoiding all patterns in $\Pi$. Suppose $312\in\Pi$. For a class of permutation statistics which includes inversion and descent…

In this paper, we investigate pattern avoidance of parity restricted (even or odd) Grassmannian permutations for patterns of sizes 3 and 4. We use a combination of direct counting and bijective techniques to provide recurrence relations,…

We give the avoidance indices (morphic and antimorphic) for all unary patterns with involution.

We use the cluster method to enumerate permutations avoiding consecutive patterns. We reprove and generalize in a unified way several known results and obtain new ones, including some patterns of length 4 and 5, as well as some infinite…
