Stanley–Wilf Conjecture
The Stanley–Wilf conjecture, formulated independently by Richard P. Stanley and Herbert Wilf in the late 1980s, states that the growth rate of every proper permutation class is singly exponential. It was proved by and is no longer a conjecture. Marcus and Tardos actually proved a different conjecture, due to , which had been shown to imply the Stanley–Wilf conjecture by . Statement The Stanley–Wilf conjecture states that for every permutation ''β'', there is a constant ''C'' such that the number , ''S''''n''(''β''), of permutations of length ''n'' which avoid ''β'' as a permutation pattern is at most ''C''''n''. As observed, this is equivalent to the convergence of the limit :\lim_ \sqrt The upper bound given by Marcus and Tardos for ''C'' is exponential in the length of ''β''. A stronger conjecture of had stated that one could take ''C'' to be , where ''k'' denotes the length of ''β'', but this conjecture was disproved for the permutation by . Indeed, has sho ...

Richard P
Richard is a male given name. It originates, via Old French, from Frankish language, Old Frankish and is a Compound (linguistics), compound of the words descending from Proto-Germanic language, Proto-Germanic ''*rīk-'' 'ruler, leader, king' and ''*hardu-'' 'strong, brave, hardy', and it therefore means 'strong in rule'. Nicknames include "Richie", "Dick (nickname), Dick", "Dickon", "Dickie (name), Dickie", "Rich (given name), Rich", "Rick (given name), Rick", "Rico (name), Rico", "Ricky (given name), Ricky", and more. Richard is a common English, German and French male name. It's also used in many more languages, particularly Germanic, such as Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Icelandic, and Dutch, as well as other languages including Irish, Scottish, Welsh and Finnish. Richard is cognate with variants of the name in other European languages, such as the Swedish "Rickard", the Catalan "Ricard" and the Italian "Riccardo", among others (see comprehensive variant list below).

Enumerative Combinatorics
Enumerative combinatorics is an area of combinatorics that deals with the number of ways that certain patterns can be formed. Two examples of this type of problem are counting combinations and counting permutations. More generally, given an infinite collection of finite sets ''S''''i'' indexed by the natural numbers, enumerative combinatorics seeks to describe a ''counting function'' which counts the number of objects in ''S''''n'' for each ''n''. Although counting the number of elements in a set is a rather broad mathematical problem, many of the problems that arise in applications have a relatively simple combinatorial description. The twelvefold way provides a unified framework for counting permutations, combinations and partitions. The simplest such functions are ''closed formulas'', which can be expressed as a composition of elementary functions such as factorials, powers, and so on. For instance, as shown below, the number of different possible orderings of a deck of '' ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Doron Zeilberger
Doron Zeilberger (דורון ציילברגר, born 2 July 1950 in Haifa, Israel) is an Israeli mathematician, known for his work in combinatorics. Education and career He received his doctorate from the Weizmann Institute of Science in 1976, under the direction of Harry Dym, with the thesis "New Approaches and Results in the Theory of Discrete Analytic Functions." He is a Board of Governors Professor of Mathematics at Rutgers University. Contributions Zeilberger has made contributions to combinatorics, hypergeometric identities, and q-series. Zeilberger gave the first proof of the alternating sign matrix conjecture, noteworthy not only for its mathematical content, but also for the fact that Zeilberger recruited nearly a hundred volunteer checkers to "pre-referee" the paper. In 2011, together with Manuel Kauers and Christoph Koutschan, Zeilberger proved the ''q''-TSPP conjecture, which was independently stated in 1983 by George Andrews and David P. Robbins.

Enumerations Of Specific Permutation Classes
In the study of permutation patterns, there has been considerable interest in enumerating specific permutation classes, especially those with relatively few basis elements. This area of study has turned up unexpected instances of Wilf equivalence, where two seemingly-unrelated permutation classes have the same numbers of permutations of each length. Classes avoiding one pattern of length 3 There are two symmetry classes and a single Wilf class for single permutations of length three. Classes avoiding one pattern of length 4 There are seven symmetry classes and three Wilf classes for single permutations of length four. No non-recursive formula counting 1324-avoiding permutations is known. A recursive formula was given by . A more efficient algorithm using functional equations was given by , which was enhanced by , and then further enhanced by who give the first 50 terms of the enumeration. have provided lower and upper bounds for the growth of this class.
