Completing the Enumeration of Inversion Sequences Avoiding One or Two Patterns of Length $3$

We present four constructions of inversion sequences, and use them to compute the enumeration sequences of 24 classes of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences. This completes the enumeration of inversion sequences avoiding one or two patterns of length 3. Some of our constructions are based on generating trees. Others involve pattern-avoiding words, which we also count using generating trees. To solve some of these cases, we introduce a generalization of inversion sequences, which we call shifted inversion sequences. Lastly, we briefly discuss the asymptotics of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences, focusing on their exponential or super-exponential behavior.

Abstract

We present four constructions of inversion sequences, and use them to compute the enumeration sequences of 24 classes of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences. This completes the enumeration of inversion sequences avoiding one or two patterns of length 3. Some of our constructions are based on generating trees. Others involve pattern-avoiding words, which we also count using generating trees. To solve some of these cases, we introduce a generalization of inversion sequences, which we call shifted inversion sequences. Lastly, we briefly discuss the asymptotics of pattern-avoiding inversion sequences, focusing on their exponential or super-exponential behavior.
