If we instead restrict to the class of permutations avoiding a specific pattern, the situation quickly becomes more interesting. Mikl\\'os B\\'ona recently proved that, surprisingly, if we consider the class of permutations avoiding the pattern 132, all other non-monotone patterns of length 3 are equally common. In this paper we examine the class $\\Av (123)$, and give exact formula for the occurrences of each length 3 pattern. While this class does not break down as nicely as $\\Av (132)$, we find some interesting similarities between the two and prove that the number of 231 patterns is the same in each.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-07-12T15:20:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "permutation classes", "expected patterns", "permutations avoiding", "instead restrict", "miklos bona" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1206.0320H" } } }
