Abstract. Consider, for a permutation Sk, the number F(n, ) of permutations in Sn which avoid as a subpattern. The conjecture of Stanley and Wilf is that for every there is a c...
We find, in the form of a continued fraction, the generating function for the number of (132)-avoiding permutations that have a given number of (123) patterns, and show how to ext...

We consider permutations that avoid the pattern 1324. By studying the generating tree for such permutations, we obtain a recurrence formula for their number. A computer program pr...
We present an algorithm for finding a system of recurrence relations for the number of permutations of length n that satisfy a certain set of conditions. A rewriting of these rela...
