چکیده

We consider the enumeration of pattern-avoiding involutions, focusing in particular on sets defined by avoiding a single pattern of length 4. We directly enumerate the involutions avoiding 1342 and the involutions avoiding 2341. As we demonstrate, the numerical data for these problems exhibits some surprising behavior. This strange behavior even provides some very unexpected data related to the number of 1324-avoiding permutations.

In [GM] Guibert and Mansour studied involutions on n letters avoiding (or containing exactly once) 132 and avoiding (or containing exactly once) an arbitrary pattern on k letters. They also established a bijection between 132-avoiding involutions and Dyck word prefixes of same length. Extending this bijection to bilateral words allows to determine more parameters; in particular, we consider the...

Pattern Avoidance in Ordered Set Partitions

In this paper we consider the enumeration of ordered set partitions avoiding a permutation pattern of length 2 or 3. We provide an exact enumeration for certain special cases, and a recursive technique to exactly enumerate the appropriate set partitions in general. We also give some asymptotic results for the growth rates of the number of ordered set partitions avoiding a single pattern; includ...

Involutions Avoiding the Class of Permutations

An involution π is said to be τ -avoiding if it does not contain any subsequence having all the same pairwise comparisons as τ . This paper concerns the enumeration of involutions which avoid a set Ak of subsequences increasing both in number and in length at the same time. Let Ak be the set of all the permutations 12π3 . . . πk of length k. For k = 3 the only subsequence in Ak is 123 and the 1...

Pattern Avoidance in Labelled Trees

We discuss a new notion of pattern avoidance motivatedby operad theory: pattern avoidance in planar labelled trees. It is a generalisation of various types of consecutive pattern avoidance studied before: consecutive patterns in words, permutations, colouredpermutations, etc. ThenotionofWilf equivalence for patterns in permutations admits a straightforward generalisation for (sets of) tree patt...

A Probabilistic Proof of an Asymptotic Formula for the Number of Labelled Regular Graphs

In 1959 Read [6] determined an exact formula for the number of labelled ..1-regular graphs on n vertices. This formula, whose proof is based on P6lya's enumeration theorem [5], is not easily penetrated. In particular, it seems that only for ..1 :!S: 3 can it be used to find its asymptotic value (see [ 4, p. 175]). Recently Bender and Canfield [1] gave an asymptotic formula for the number of lab...
