Joint distribution equivalence of mesh patterns S21 and S22
Joint distribution equivalence of mesh patterns S21 and S22
Let a mesh pattern be represented by a permutation together with a set of shaded cells, and let denote joint distribution equivalence: two pairs of mesh patterns have the same joint occurrence distribution in permutations. The four mesh patterns in the claim are the increasing and decreasing length-three patterns with, respectively, the shaded-cell sets
and
Joint distribution equivalence of S21 and S22. The first pair of mesh patterns, with points at and at , satisfies , and the corresponding second pair, with the same point sets and the second displayed shading set, also satisfies .
These are additional pairs of mesh patterns with symmetric shadings suggested by computer evidence; the supplied text does not establish whether the asserted equivalences are proved or remain open.
