A code for square permutations and convex permutominoes
In this article we consider square permutations, a natural subclass of permutations defined in terms of geometric conditions, that can also be described in terms of pattern avoiding permutations, and convex permutoninoes, a related subclass of polyominoes. While these two classes of objects arised i...

description | In this article we consider square permutations, a natural subclass of
permutations defined in terms of geometric conditions, that can also be
described in terms of pattern avoiding permutations, and convex permutoninoes,
a related subclass of polyominoes. While these two classes of objects arised
independently in various contexts, they play a natural role in the description
of certain random horizontally and vertically convex grid configurations.
We propose a common approach to the enumeration of these two classes of
objets that allows us to explain the known common form of their generating
functions, and to derive new refined formulas and linear time random generation
algorithms for these objects and the associated grid configurations. |
