A emph{set partition} of the set $[n]={1,...c,n}$ is a collection of disjoint blocks $B_1,B_2,...c, B_d$ whose union is $[n]$. We choose the ordering of the blocks so that they satisfy $min B_1<min B_2<...b<min B_d$. We represent such a set partition by a emph{canonical sequence} $pi_1,pi_2,...c,pi_n$, with $pi_i=j$ if $iin B_j$. We say that a partition $pi$ emph{contains} a partition $sigma$ if the canonical sequence of $pi$ contains a subsequence that is order-isomorphic to the canonical sequence of $sigma$. Two partitions $sigma$ and $sigma$ are emph{equivalent}, if there is a size-preserving bijection between $sigma$-avoiding and $sigma$-avoiding partitions. We determine several infinite families of sets of equivalent patterns; for instance, we prove that there is a bijection between $k$-noncrossing and $k$-nonnesting partitions, with a notion of crossing and nesting based on the canonical sequence. We also provide new combinatorial interpretations of the Catalan numbers and the Stirling numbers. Using a systematic computer search, we verify that our results characterize all the pairs of equivalent partitions of size at most seven. We also present a correspondence between set partitions and fillings of Ferrers shapes and stack polyominoes. This correspondence allows us to apply recent results on polyomino fillings in the study of partitions, and conversely, some of our results on partitions imply new results on polyomino fillings and ordered graphs.
An alternating permutation of length $n$ is a permutation $pi=pi_1 pi_2 ... pi_n$ such that $pi_1 < pi_2 > pi_3 < pi_4 > ...$. Let $A_n$ denote set of alternating permutations of ${1,2,..., n}$, and let $A_n(sigma)$ be set of alternating permutations
We introduce consecutive-pattern-avoiding stack-sorting maps $text{SC}_sigma$, which are natural generalizations of Wests stack-sorting map $s$ and natural analogues of the classical-pattern-avoiding stack-sorting maps $s_sigma$ recently introduced b
A permutation $sigmainmathfrak{S}_n$ is simsun if for all $k$, the subword of $sigma$ restricted to ${1,...,k}$ does not have three consecutive decreasing elements. The permutation $sigma$ is double simsun if both $sigma$ and $sigma^{-1}$ are simsun.
Babson and Steingr{i}msson introduced generalized permutation patterns and showed that most of the Mahonian statistics in the literature can be expressed by the combination of generalized pattern functions. Particularly, they defined a new Mahonian s
In this note, we study the mean length of the longest increasing subsequence of a uniformly sampled involution that avoids the pattern $3412$ and another pattern.
