This means that the number of principal subclasses of each of these classes grows much more slowly than the class itself whereas a priori, based only on symmetries of the class, there is no reason to expect this. The underlying cause of the collapse in both cases is the ability to apply some form of local symmetry which, combined with a greedy algorithm for detecting patterns in these classes, yields a Wilf-collapse.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-12-16T21:31:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05", "05A15" ], "keywords": [ "permutation classes", "exponential wilf-collapse", "principal subclasses", "classes grows", "local symmetry" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
