More restrictive Gray codes for some classes of pattern avoiding permutations
نویسنده
چکیده
In a recent article [11], Dukes, Flanagan, Mansour and Vajnovszki present Gray codes for several families of pattern avoiding permutations. In their Gray codes two consecutive objects differ in at most four or five positions, which is not optimal. In this paper, we present a unified construction in order to refine their results (or to find other Gray codes). In particular, we obtain more restrictive Gray codes for the two Wilf classes of Catalan permutations of length n; two consecutive objects differ in at most two or three positions which is optimal for n odd. Other refinements have been found for permutation sets enumerated by the numbers of Schröder, Pell, even index Fibonacci numbers and the central binomial coefficients. A general efficient generating algorithm is also given.

Combinatorial Gray codes for classes of pattern avoiding permutations
The past decade has seen a flurry of research into pattern avoiding permutations but little of it is concerned with their exhaustive generation. Many applications call for exhaustive generation of permutations subject to various constraints or imposing a particular generating order. In this paper we present generating algorithms and combinatorial Gray codes for several families of pattern avoid...
متن کاملExhaustive Generation of Some Classes of Pattern Avoiding Permutations Using Succession Functions
ECO-method and its corresponding succession rules allow to recursively define and construct combinatorial objects. We introduce here succession functions which refine succession rules. They permit to construct general efficient algorithms for classes of combinatorial objects and to find some new classes more easily than previous methods. We apply succession function technique for a lot of class...
متن کاملClassical Sequences Revisited with Permutations Avoiding Dotted Pattern
Inspired by the definition of the barred pattern-avoiding permutation, we introduce the new concept of dotted pattern for permutations. We investigate permutations classes avoiding dotted patterns of length at most 3, possibly along with other classical patterns. We deduce some enumerating results which allow us to exhibit new families of permutations counted by the classical sequences: 2n, Cat...
متن کاملThe Enumeration of Maximally Clustered Permutations
The maximally clustered permutations are characterized by avoiding the classical permutation patterns {3421, 4312, 4321}. This class contains the freely braided permutations and the fully commutative permutations. In this work, we show that the generating functions for certain fully commutative pattern classes can be transformed to give generating functions for the corresponding freely braided ...
متن کاملLongest Monotone Subsequences and Rare Regions of Pattern-Avoiding Permutations
We consider the distributions of the lengths of the longest monotone and alternating subsequences in classes of permutations of size n that avoid a specific pattern or set of patterns, with respect to the uniform distribution on each such class. We obtain exact results for any class that avoids two patterns of length 3, as well as results for some classes that avoid one pattern of length 4 or m...
