A Cayley permutation is a word of positive integers such that if a letter appears in this word, then all positive integers smaller than that letter also appear. We initiate a systematic study of pattern avoidance on Cayley permutations…
We study permutations in $S_n$ that simultaneously avoid the pattern $132$ and satisfy the adjacency bound $|\pi_{i+1} - \pi_i| \leq m$ for all $i$, denoting their number by $A_n^{(m)}$. This combination of a global pattern restriction and…
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.…
A notable problem within permutation patterns that has attracted considerable attention in literature since 1973 is the search for a bijective proof demonstrating that 123-avoiding and 132-avoiding permutations are equinumerous, both…
We study the total number of occurrences of several vincular (also called generalized) patterns and other statistics, such as the major index and the Denert statistic, on permutations avoiding a pattern of length 3, extending results of…
We prove that an inclusion-exclusion inspired expression of Schubert polynomials of permutations that avoid the patterns 1432 and 1423 is nonnegative. Our theorem implies a partial affirmative answer to a recent conjecture of Yibo Gao about…
In this paper, we give a formula for the number of permutations that avoid the split patterns $3|12$ and $23|1$ with respect to a position $r$. Such permutations count the number of Schubert varieties for which the projection map from the…
Billey, Jockusch, and Stanley characterized 321-avoiding permutations by a property of their reduced decompositions. This paper generalizes that result with a detailed study of permutations via their reduced decompositions and the notion of…
We study the factorization of Schubert polynomials into elementary symmetric polynomials. We conjecture that this occurs when the permutation corresponding to the Schubert polynomial does not contain the patterns $1432$, $1423$, $4132$, and…
A permutation is said to be \emph{alternating} if it starts with rise and then descents and rises come in turn. In this paper we study the generating function for the number of alternating permutations on $n$ letters that avoid or contain…
We present four constructions of inversion sequences, and use them to compute the enumeration sequences of 24 classes of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences. This completes the enumeration of inversion sequences avoiding one or two…
The subject of pattern avoiding permutations has its roots in computer science, namely in the problem of sorting a permutation through a stack. A formula for the number of permutations of length n that can be sorted by passing it twice…
We study a class of general quadrinomials over the field of size $2^{2m}$ with odd $m$ and characterize conditions under which they are permutations with the best boomerang uniformity, a new and important parameter related to…
We enumerate permutations in the two permutation classes $\text{Av}_n(312, 4321)$ and $\text{Av}_n(321, 4123)$ by the number of cycles each permutation admits. We also refine this enumeration with respect to several statistics.
We study fixed point biased involutions that avoid a pattern. For every pattern of length three we obtain limit theorems for the asymptotic distribution of the (appropriately centered and scaled) number of fixed points of a random fixed…
We enumerate the numbers $Av_n^k(1324)$ of 1324-avoiding $n$-permutations with exactly $k$ inversions for all $k$ and $n \geq (k+7)/2$. The result depends on a structural characterization of such permutations in terms of a new notion of…
Babson and Steingr\'{\i}msson introduced generalized permutation patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. We consider n-permutations that avoid the generalized pattern…
We construct a sequence of finite automata that accept subclasses of the class of 4231-avoiding permutations. We thereby show that the Wilf-Stanley limit for the class of 4231-avoiding permutations is bounded below by 9.35. This bound shows…
In this note, we study the mean length of the longest increasing subsequence of a uniformly sampled involution that avoids the pattern $3412$ and another pattern.
We define a variation of Stirling permutations, called quasi-Stirling permutations, to be permutations on the multiset $\{1,1,2,2,\ldots, n,n\}$ that avoid the patterns 1212 and 2121. Their study is motivated by a known relationship between…
