Equidistribution of the pix and fix statistics on pattern-avoiding permutations
Equidistribution of the pix and fix statistics on pattern-avoiding permutations
Let with . For each , let denote the permutations avoiding every pattern in , and let and be the statistics on this avoidance class described in the paper.
Equidistribution conjecture. The statistics and are equidistributed over for all if and only if is one of
This conjecture refines the paper's results on pattern-avoiding derangements. Computational evidence supports the stated classification, but the authors leave its resolution open; the exceptional set from the related theorem is , which is excluded from the listed cases.
