The joint Destop-Desbot Wilf-equivalence conjecture for 3142, 3241, and 4132
For a permutation , let and denote its descent top and descent bottom sets. Patterns are -Wilf equivalent when their avoidance classes have the same joint distribution of these two statistics for every permutation length. The joint Destop-Desbot conjecture. The patterns , , and are -Wilf equivalent. The source says this conjecture, together with the preceding classification conjectures, would identify the unique non-singleton joint equivalence class in ; the joint conjecture was verified computationally for avoiders of length at most .
