Permutations Containing and Avoiding 123and 132Patterns

We prove that the number of permutations which avoid 132-patterns and have exactly one 123-pattern, equals (n-2)2 n-3, for n≥3. We then give a bijection onto the set of permutations which avoid 123-patterns and have exactly one 132-pattern. Finally, we show that the number of permutations...

description We prove that the number of permutations which avoid 132-patterns and have exactly one 123-pattern, equals (n-2)2 n-3, for n≥3. We then give a bijection onto the set of permutations which avoid 123-patterns and have exactly one 132-pattern. Finally, we show that the number of permutations which contain exactly one 123-pattern and exactly one 132-pattern is (n-3)(n-4)2 n-5, for n≥5.
