By a simple involution in terms of permutation diagrams we will prove their equidistribution over the symmetric group. As special case we derive a one-to-one correspondence between permutations which avoid each of the patterns t_1...t_{m-2}m(m-1) in S_m and such ones which avoid each of the patterns t_1...t_{m-2}(m-1)m. For m=3, this correspondence coincides with the bijection given by Simion and Schmidt in their famous paper on restricted permutations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2003-03-02T08:25:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05A05" ], "keywords": [ "restricted permutations", "simion-schmidt bijection", "generalization", "correspondence coincides", "distinct pairs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math......1033R" } } }
